This video tutorial demonstrates how to disable PDF printing to protect a document. To do this, open Windows Explorer, right-click on the PDF file, and choose "Make Secure PDF" in the PDF writer. In the printing and viewing tab, deselect the allowed printing checkbox and click "Publish." This will confirm the protection status and change the file's extension to .pdc, making it a protected PDF file. The document can only be opened with a specific viewer, and printing is disabled within the viewer so that no printing actions can be performed.
