you can protect text in PDF format. I do it all the time so people cant copy
my work. Now they have to retype it

Maybe not the right place but seems there are several web experts here.

Can web spiders read and harvest e-mail addresses from a pdf file ?

Many users and folks like QRZ.com are using jpegs not ascii for listing
e-mails -- this seems to work.

So for pdf files without going to a jpeg --- is ascii text addresses
harvestable ?

Thanks
