How it works

Forms. Each field's current appearance is painted into its page and the field is removed, so the values can no longer be changed. Text stays selectable.

Annotations. Stamps, highlights, ink and signatures with a stored appearance are painted the same way. Links are kept clickable on purpose; an annotation with no stored appearance is left alone and counted, rather than guessed at.

As images. The thorough option renders every page to a JPEG. Nothing can be edited afterwards, and nothing can be selected either.
