I want to take a note (mainly take some essential copy) from a secured
pdf, which prevent copying.

In this situation, how can I handle it.

Evince and Okular can bypass some of the low security measures so just
open the PDF file with them and save a copy of the PDF. The resulting
file should be freely editable.

Also, if the security of the file allows printing, you can use a PDF
printer to get a "clean" copy (though not sure if this will preserve the
file "editability").

If the original PDF uses strong encryption or a specific DRM set, you can
be in a problem :-)

If all else fails, OCR a screenshot.
