KPDF could tell that the reason is that indeed, but KPDF is frozen solid and no more KDE 3 releases are planned, so it cannot be done. (And Okular - KPDF successor in KDE 4 - does that, anyway.) However, you can disable the fact that KPDF respect the DRM bits of the document, just go in the preferences. -- Pino Toscano
