If you can print it, you can print it to disk with any PostScript driver,
then run Acrobat Distiller on it. You've got a virgin, totally copyable PDF
file. Or, if you take same PostScript file and toss it into, say
GhostScript, or any other PostScript decompiler, you'll get text which can
be copied.
Trust me, any effort spent on locking out cut-paste is totally, 100% futile.
Your book is geared toward developers; they know how to get around all of
that. If honor alone isn't sufficient, you should stick to paper versions of
the book...
