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.
Hans
