Hi List,

I've bought a technical paper that is protected by DRM. The limitations are 
ridiculous. Once I open the document, it's permanently locked to that 
computer. And, I can only print it once -- even if the print is unsuccessful 
(as was the case this time).

I want to be able to open the document on my laptop, as well as the work 
computer. And I want to be able to print copies -- to write notes on, 
replace pages with coffee stains, etc etc.

Are there tools that can disable DRM? Commercial solutions will be 
considered, as I plan to purchase other protected documents in the future.

If that's not an option, is there a way to convert a DRM-protected PDF to a 
plain PDF, while preserving appearance and formatting? The best I could come 
up with, was to print the PDF, scan the pages into Acrobat, and run them 
through an OCR.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Best regards,

Vitaliy
