    Deterring Photocopies


    Hey everyone, is there a way of formatting that will print out well, but obscure information when that paper is photocopied? I want to try to deter people from copying the report that's printed out and was wondering if there was any formatting to help this.

    Thanks, Eric

    Printing in a light blue may help.

    I read a cheap, trashy dime store novel recently about eco-terrorists and the lawyer for the state printed all of their documents in red so the defense attorneys would have to re-type them in black to make copies. I don't know if this is accurate or not but it is kind of interesting LOL,

    Print on watermarked paper. When you copy a document printed on watermarked paper, the watermark ends up printed on the photocopy. That's how they protect checks from being copied. Its a significant paper investment though.
