Mark as Final means that the presentation slide is the final edition and the author doesn’t want anyone to edit or change the content inside. With Free Spire.Presentation for Java, we can protect the presentation slides by setting the document property MarkAsFinal as true. This article will share the Java code used to mark a PowerPoint document as final.
