Read-only Download

You can export your document read-only directly from Lawlift to prevent unauthorized third parties from accessing it. This function is based on the Word read-only protection, as it is also offered by Word itself.

Read-Only

Therefore, open the use or preview mode. Click on the three grey dots next to EXPORT TO WORD. There you can select the option EXPORT READ-ONLY.

Info

For information-security reasons, LAWLIFT cannot set password protection. After the generation of the Word document, password protection can be set in the Word file.
