How would DSpace know what a client is planning to do with the document? There is no technical means of preventing a user from saving a copy of a document he can read. The only available protection is legal. Permit access only to logged-on users who are known to have signed an agreement not to save copies. If you find that someone broke his contract with you, sue. -- Mark H. Wood Lead Technology Analyst University Library Indiana University - Purdue University Indianapolis 755 W.
