Many thanks for your all advice and confirmation!

So now it is clear that we can NOT prevent printing since user can intentionally use ORC to convert to generic text again.

Now I have 2 options in my mind:

1- PDF with "secured" printing restriction: not so convenient with small-screen devices like Kindle 3, Kindle touch, etc.

2-PRC or other friendly Kindle, iPad... format: I personally prefer these formats since they are popularly supported well on various kind of devices. But what is the difference between "no Encrypted" vs "Content Encrypted" of PRC file made with Mobipocket Creator. I personally could not find any differences between them?
