Disable Export PDF button inside CS Review for the reviewers

Tags: #pdf #export #cs #review

Hi all

 

Times ago I used CS Review to share some specific projects to a group of reviewers. Found CS Review very safety because these reviewers could see the pages, post comments and just it.

 

Now I´m using again the CS Review to share a new set of projects to a group of reviewers and have perceived the reviewers are able to EXPORT PDF from the content.

 

Is there any way to disable the Export to PDF button so reviewers can acess....read the informations..post comments..but do not do anything more..do not download it ? (only see online)

 

Thank you a lot

 

Gustavo.

    Gustavo, there was a way but have not posted anything for quite some time and when I have been there noticed some chgs in user usage. This was a concern of mine and posted as such. I will check asn see if the way to disable is still available. Later, Katharine

    Gustavo,

     

    Thank you for sharing your concerns. There is no option to disable 'Export as PDF'. The 'Export as PDF' is a PDF preview of the content with a record of the comments, replies and flags, it is not the original content. There is no way to download the original content that was uploaded.

     

    The restrictions to sharing that are:

    1. Make a person a Reviewer so they can post comments, but not add content to the review as a Coauthor.

    2. Do not allow Reviewers to share the review with additional people, only Coauthors and the original Author.

    Gustavo,

     

    My apologies, there is a way to disallow 'Export as PDF'.

     

    From the menu in the top right choose Review > Review Settings. Uncheck "Allow reviewers to export this Review as a PDF file." and press the OK button. Now Reviewers will not be able to export, only Coauthors and the original Author.

    Doing great... hope you are also!

     

    Here is a pdf. Page 2 should be page 1 but hopefully will make sense anyway. As always I am behind in what I should be doing- - -

    Well, I see the pdf didn't make it so.. go to your CSR file,  open it. Top right corner is "Review", click and 3rd from bottom is Review Settings that will take you the box where you can uncheck let reviewers print pdf... but don't forget to change your inviters to reviewer rather than author.
