In this article, I want to share the latest improvements we’ve made to the VeryPDF DRM Online Reader, based on detailed feedback from one of our users. His suggestions helped us polish the reading experience and make the DRM viewer even more reliable and user-friendly.
We also prepared a 79-page demo PDF so anyone can test the new features immediately.
If you are planning to protect e-books, course materials, or confidential PDF documents, this walkthrough will be very useful.
Full Video Walkthrough Now Available
We’ve completed a full step-by-step video demonstration covering everything you need to know about the updated VeryPDF DRM Reader, including:

This finished video is especially helpful for authors, educators, trainers, and digital publishers who want a clear, visual guide to protecting their content with VeryPDF DRM.
✅ What Was Fixed and Improved
After collecting feedback and running multiple tests, we updated the DRM reader. Here are the improvements now fully working in the latest version:
1. Presentation Mode — Fully Restored and Better Than Before
Many readers prefer Presentation Mode because it automatically displays the PDF pages in FIT view, making them large and easy to read. You can simply use your keyboard arrows to move forward or backward.
This mode had temporarily disappeared in an earlier build, but now:
- It is fully restored
- It’s smoother
- Page transitions feel more natural
- Works perfectly with long PDFs
This is especially helpful for authors, teachers, and publishers who need readers to have a distraction-free reading environment.
2. Two-Page (Facing Pages) View — Also Fully Supported
For users who want a “book-like” experience, the Two-Page Display mode is back and works without any issues.
You can now:
- View two pages side by side
- Zoom in/out without a black screen
- Navigate smoothly
- See illustrations and text layouts the way they were designed
This is great for textbooks, magazines, and e-books with illustrations.
3. Zoom — Smooth and No More Black Screens
A few users previously experienced a “black area” when zooming in certain situations.
This is now fixed.
In the new demo build:
- Zoom in
- Zoom out
- Switch between FIT / WIDTH view
- Scroll quickly
… all work smoothly without graphical glitches.
4. Anti-Download + Anti-Annotation + Anti-Copy — All Working
The DRM security features remain strong and unchanged:
- No download button
- No ability to save
- No ability to extract content
- No notes
- No comments
- No copy/paste
- No screen-capture tools on the web UI
All restrictions are enforced to protect sensitive or paid content.

This is the same version Bore used for testing.
How to Use Dynamic Watermarks
If you want to add dynamic watermarks, the DRM system supports inserting automatic user-specific information such as:
- Username
- Access time
- Date
- IP address
A dynamic watermark can look like this:
User: {username}
Email: {email}
Viewed at: {datetime}
IP: {ip}
This helps you track document access and discourage sharing.
If you prefer, we can help configure the exact watermark style for your e-book or course materials.
