This tutorial demonstrates how to disable PDF printing by using a PDF writer. First, locate the document in Windows Explorer, right-click, and select "Make Secure PDF." In the PDF writer, deselect the "allowed printing" checkbox in the Printing and Viewing tab. Click "Publish" to confirm the protection status, and the document will now have a .pdc extension, indicating it is a protected PDF file. The document can only be opened with the LockLizard Secure PDF Viewer, and printing is disabled in the Safeguard Secure Viewer, preventing users from printing or using keyboard shortcuts.
