How to Enable/Disable Document Downloads in PandaDoc

Use this interactive demo to learn how to control document download permissions in PandaDoc.

Quick summary

PandaDoc lets you enable or disable document downloads on a per-document basis, giving you full control over how recipients interact with your files. You can manage download permissions directly from the document editor's recipient settings in just a few clicks.


Steps

  1. Go to the Documents tab in your PandaDoc dashboard.
  2. Open the document you want to send.
  3. Click the recipients icon at the top-right corner of the document editor.
  4. Go to document settings and manage download permissions.
  5. Find the Download toggle and switch it ON to enable downloads or OFF to disable them.

📌 Why this matters

Controlling who can download your documents is critical for protecting sensitive contracts, proposals, and agreements. PandaDoc's built-in download permission toggle lets sales and legal teams prevent unauthorized distribution of confidential files without complex workflows. This feature ensures recipients can only view — not save — documents when needed, reducing the risk of data leaks and maintaining version control. It is a key capability for any business that relies on secure, professional document management.
