hi gurls and boys!

I would like to save an illustrator file as a pdf file but in such a way that could be opened both in acrobat and illustrator but non-editable in illustrator - I wouldn't want my layers, shapes, lines, etc to be accessed to and modified.

I thought I could do this by unchecking the option "preserve illustrator editing capabilities" when saving as pdf. But when I reopen the file in illustrator I can still access the layers and modify the shapes.

any thoughts?
