Frequently asked questions

Can readers download or forward my files?

Protected PDFs and e-books are never shared as download links. Readers sign in and open them in the DocusPocus web reader or desktop Viewer, and the only downloadable copy is an encrypted .dcspcs file that opens in the Viewer for readers with access. In the Viewer, printing adds a personal watermark and saving as PDF is blocked. For other files you share in a zone, you decide whether members can download them.

Can I update an e-book after people have bought it?

Yes. Replace the PDF and every reader with access sees the new version. Nobody needs a new link or file.

How do I give or remove access?

Grant access automatically through your checkout or the Developer API, or manually by email. Access can be lifetime or time-limited, and you can revoke it at any time.
