Security Features for Electronic Downloads

In an effort to protect their intellectual property and enforce existing copyright laws, many Standards Developing Organizations have required all distributors of their content to implement security features that prevent the reproduction and redistribution of downloaded documents. AWS and WEX have implemented a security policy that uses a free Adobe Acrobat plug-in from FileOpen Systems, Inc. If you wish to obtain a license that allows multiple print copies or the ability to place a Secure PDF on a network, please contact WEX Customer Service at 888-935-3463 or [email protected] for pricing. AWS Standard Welding Procedure Specifications in the B2.1 series are intended for multiple users to have access. These publications may be reproduced electronically or by copy machine for use within a single customer facility. See the Site License contained within the documents. Security Features: Reproduction and Redistribution Restrictions: The free Adobe Acrobat plug-in locks the PDF file to the computer on which it was first opened. Once a PDF file has been locked to a computer, it can be opened only from that computer. Networking Restrictions: Secure PDF files cannot be used in a multi-user, network environment. Standard Welding Procedure Specifications in the AWS B2.1 series are provided with a user license that allows printing and electronic distribution within a single buyer site. If you are interested in purchasing standards for your internal corporate network, please contact WEX to obtain a network version of the document(s) and a network license. Viewing Restrictions: You must download the free plug-in to view any secured PDF document. There is no limit to the number of times a document may be viewed on your computer. Printing Restrictions: The plug-in limits the number of times the document may be printed to one copy. Since the software interprets printing a part of the document as the one allowable print attempt, we recommend you print the entire document. Copy & Paste Restrictions: The ability to copy and paste text from the PDF file has been disabled.
