I don't think you can do it. To my knowledge there is now way to programatically disable the toolbars or any of the features you are describing. And it is certainly the wrong way of providing security to a document. Maybe you should look at alternative formats.
As a general rule of thumb, if someone can see it on their computer, they can duplicate it.

Two PDF developer libraries that would offer you this functionality are:
