Help:Security/PDF files/ja

The PDF file format has certain security and privacy issues that you might want to consider before opening such files. PDF files can include complex interactive features which might trigger the PDF reader software to connect to the internet and reveal the IP address and other personal information of the user to a third party. A malicious PDF author might use this functionality to connect network locations to wiki usernames or otherwise violate the privacy of the reader.

PDF has a complex internal structure which makes practically impossible to detect dangerous files; it is left to the privacy-conscious reader to take precautions. Whether a PDF file is able to expose private information depends on your choice of PDF reader software. 一般に、機能がより少ない PDF リーダーの方がより安全です. Firefox および Chrome の各 Web ブラウザーに組み込まれたネイティブの PDF リーダーを選択するのが最も安全です. 既定の設定のままの Adobe Acrobat は、安全ではありません.
