It is possible to disable the "save as.." button. However, with a
little RTFM, one can see that this can be done only at startup of
Acrobat (and via the Console). Therefore, this disabling must be
specified in a configuration JavaScript which is installed in the
Document level JavaScripts folder.
It is all in the documentation.
Hope, this can help.
