How to create a nonsearchable pdf?

Posted: 11-04-2008, 05:18 PM
I create newsletter for a club and after the paper version goes out, I post a pdf on the club website. I'm not a privacy freak, but I don't like for google searches to turn up my name and give out too much information to strangers. I also would like to protect other club members who have the same concern. Is there a way to create a nonsearchable pdf?

The proper way to do that would be to add a robot.txt file to the root of your site.

Other than that, al you could really do is export the .pdf as an image file so it converts the text to images.
