Software To Control What / How Others Can Print

I will be selling 5-6 page printed copies of pdf files from my website. Ideally I would like to control the printing in the same way fandango controls printing for tickets and paypal controls the printing of international postage with customs forms. While it is not impossible to save a copies of these documents it takes a bit of technical knowledge to do so. My goal is to make it difficult to save copies of the files and only allow printing.

How does Paypal and Fandango achieve this? Is there a particular software program that would allow me to do the same?

Thanks

fandango gives each ticket a barcode. You can save and print the ticket an infinite amount of times, the control is that when the barcode is scanned, it can only be scanned once.

Dngrsone agrees: Nice to know information, that.
