I had a question about this paragraph in the license for the
.pdf 
ebook version of the APA Style Guide to Electronic
References.


http://forms.apa.org/books/styleguide/electronic.pdf

Licensee is granted the right by the Licensor to print
copies of 
APA Style Guide to Electronic References equal to, but not 
greater than, the number of print copies in all available
formats 
(hardcover, softcover, and spiralbound) of the Publication
Manual 
of the American Psychological Association(r), Fifth Edition,
that 
the Licensee possesses in its holdings.

Rights to print additional copies above and beyond this
number 
must be separately purchased, and are not granted under this

license.

I can't think of a way to monitor the number of times a .pdf

document is printed. I might be able to change the document

security to disable printing, but the patron could save it
to 
their computer and print the document from there.  Does
anyone 
have any ideas that would allow me to enforce the license 
restriction?
