PDF Zorro very helpful cause i always forget Great tip. Thank you very much Etsy sellers seem to be doing this a lot now. One I bought had my real name address and telephone number provided by etsy to the seller. She told me it was to "protect her intellectual property". I asked her to remove all that because I print my patterns to work on them and if lost? well anything may happen and she did. In many places it's not legal to do that. If you buy something and your personal information is embedded within ask the seller to take it out. If they won't then I might suggest taking it higher. Many places take to many liberties with what they do with personal information and identity theft prevails. static/image/common/user_online.gif sympathy4tdevil static/image/common/clock.gif 2021-9-11 14:59
Can you tell me how to find the information, if it is included please. Is it in the document propert ...
The information of the buyer can be anywhere: visible, almost invisible or hidden.
it can be: name of the buyer, their email, their ID, their phone number, the number of the transaction or any other suspicious thing. After searching for visible information, you should search for hidden one and delete it. I've had to do this too with some McCall's patterns. It's easy to delete the info in a PDF editor. As for hidden info that might be possible, but I haven't detected anything so far. If anything, you can always claim you got hacked or lost your USB stick... I've inadvertently done that myself!There have also been times when I've been unable to edit - don't know what code they put in the pdf? Thanks for the list of free editors :-) Thank you. I have known about this for a while now. If there is information that is hidden, how would I know this & would one of those free programs see it to delete it? Thank you so much! I didn't know this. I will definitely be more careful from now on, and write down this info for future reference. Thanks for the info. I didn't know about those apps that can be used. I will be looking out for that from now on. thanks for the info! Thank you for the info. Thank you for the info! certo thank u for the info! useful information, thanks
