Person A wants to send an encrypted file to Person B.

Person A encrypts the file using Person B’s public encryption key.

Person A then send the encrypted file to Person B.

Person B then uses Person B’s private Encryption key to decrypt the file.

Questions related to this exchange:

How does Person A (an AxCrypt user) get the public key from Person B?

What if Person B is not an AxCrypt User but has another encryption vendor?   (pubic/private key encryption should not depend on the application software)
