Opening Locklizard Safeguard protected PDC documents & files

• To open a PDC document you need a license from the Publisher – only they can issue this.
• The Publisher is the company who sent you the protected PDF document (PDC file), or is who you purchased the protected PDF document from.
• The Publisher will have sent you a license email so that you can open their protected PDF documents.
• Check your email to see if you received the license email from the Publisher.  The license email contains usage instructions for opening protected PDF documents (PDC files) and your license information.  It should look something like this:

Did not receive your license file email?

1. Before contacting the Publisher of the protected PDF document (.pdc file) for your license email, check your spam folder, as sometimes license emails can get marked as spam if the license file is also supplied as an attached zip file.
2. Some companies strip incoming email attachments, so if no license file is attached to the email and no link to the license file is provided, then you may have to ask the Publisher for your license file link.
3. If you have not received your license email then contact the Publisher.
