“SECURED” means that there are *some* protections. As I wrote in my
earlier message, I had no difficulties in copying characters from a
chart. It is flagged as “SECURED”, but looking at its properties in
Adobe Reader (Ctrl+D), I see copying as allowed but e.g. commenting as
disallowed.
The following was copied directly from a chart into this message, so
copying the characters and the names is surely possible (though not
necessarily in every program):
