These require a proprietary reader from Locklizard which does not have printing enabled. I tried running it under wine, but it complained that I was not running the correct version of windows. I suspect that it failed to find some DRM system. So far this software is the *only* way I have of decrypting the file, and once it does it is very picky about what it does with the data. All I can do is borrow a windows box and take screenshots from an external program. According to Locklizard, this stuff is stored encrypted in memory and decrypted on the fly too, so I won't be able to grab it out of RAM. I have to say, Locklizard seems to know what they are doing.
