IE if I share it with someone I don't have my own copy until it is e-mailed back to me. They are to delete it as well, then buy their own if they liked it enough. Exactly like how actual books are shared.I think you PDF publishers should get together and give your customers some clear guidelines on what you consider "fair use", or legal sharing. A lot of people do violate such laws simply because they don't know. Granted, this won't stop pirating, because those people just don't care about the law. It does help those who want to be legal stay legal. Like me.So rather than make such customers have to come to a forum and start a thread like this, put "fair use" guidelines on your websites and in your PDF's.PDF publishers should try and so so collaboratively. It will let your customers know how to stay within the law, and it helps publishers by establishing a widely accepted practice that will help publishers in future law suits over copyright and fair use violations.</blockquote>
