How do I make a 3-day trial download? How do I make a secure download?
I use Front page.
My question is how do I create a trial download that is non-printable/non-editable that will expire in 1-2 days? My trial download currently is in Acrobat, and is protected by a password, but that is it....and it can be viewed forever.
In addition, how do I protect the purchased version of the download so that it can not be transferred from computer to computer? Thanks!

Did you want a way to erase the memory of having seen the document as well?

Less silly -- no. Not with front-page, not with Acrobat, not with HTML.
If you were programming an application that ran directly on the operating system, not in another application, then yes, you can do all of the above.
However!
You are being unreasonable in the amount you want to protect your document. Once it's out there, it can be traded, shared et cetera and there is nothing you can do about it other than take all the offenders to court for copyright violations.

Exactly, if one person can print it, what stops him/her from printing multiple copies? Or what stops them from copying the printed paper for their friends and so on.
