i don't want to seem ungrateful...

that password protection is a huge pain in the ass, though. I don't mind that they want to protect their property, but having to enter a password every time I read it is a drag.

I just opened it and then hid Preview and left it open for most of yesterday ;-). They could distribute it in a password-protected archive, but then the expanded document will be protection-free, which isn't ideal either. I'm not sure what their other options are ...

Yes, it is a pain.

I'm going to look into some plugins for the pdf generation maybe there is some third party solutions out there.. I will look into it.

The archive might not be a bad idea. I'm sure the password has been passed around in chat rooms already so that might be a feasible option.

The main reason we did it like this was so people would sign up for our mailing list. If we can prove that we have this many people then we can get review copies, and such. And these statistics will also be good for getting prizes for contests that we would like to offer too.
