How do I manage printing of website content?

Question

I have some content that I want to sell through the web. The goal is to be able to charge an amount for each time that content is printed. Is this possible? How might I achieve this goal?

Answer 1

If it's an image, you could place a watermark over it until it has been purchased. After the purchase is made you can display one less the watermark.

Are you doing this for images or for textual content?

Edit:

Maybe let them view a page or two of the pamphlet online as a graphic / pdf (with a watermark), but in order to view and print the entire pamplet they'll need to purchase it.

Once they've made their purchase, you can enable them to view and print the pamphlet(s) which they've purchased.
