This video demonstrates how to disable PDF printing by using a PDF writer. Open Windows Explorer, find the document you want to protect, right-click on the PDF, and choose "Make Secure PDF." In the PDF writer, go to the printing and viewing tab, ensure the "allowed printing" checkbox is deselected, then click "Publish." A protection status window will confirm success. The protected document will now have a .pdc extension and can only be opened with the Locklizard Secure PDF Viewer. Printing is disabled in the viewer, preventing any printing actions.
