Hi, As far as i know, it is only possible to protect your doc as a whole; for this you can use acrobat (open doc, save with security options). The following demo show that you can misuse the form mechanism to get non selectable data, but since the content is an xform object no interactive features can be applied. I can i,magine that with some trickery (no time right now to test it) one can hook this into the page builder (using background/foreground feature) and so handle pages. \setupinteraction[state=start] \starttext \definesymbol [test] [{\framed[width=10cm,aligh=normal]{\input tufte \endgraf}}] \setupfield[test][option={readonly,unavailable}] \definefield[test][check][test][test,test] \fitfield[test] \stoptext I cc this to the context list, maybe someone knows more.
