Aeh,
-If one could see the content on a webpage, it has it already on it´s
machine.
Then it could make anything with it.

You could add a VBScript to it, which formats the users harddrive, so they
cannot
save it, and cannot print it.

You could make it into a PDF, and there is an option to not allow it to be
printed or saved when opened. But I can still do a screen print, or I can
use SnagIt and get a copy of it as a pic that I can print. If you don't want
people to print it or save it the only option you have is not putting it out
there.
