    Myself I have no idea how you could even do that 'partially' in terms of implementation. I doubt it is possible unless PDF already supports that. I suspect you need two papers. The first is an abstract with a reference to the second. Which is basically what any normal paywall already does.

      Have you looked at Adobe? Don't know what they are charging for the PDF document editing tools. https://www.adobe.com/acrobat/hub/how-to-black-out-text-in-a-pdf-file.html

          It's an illusion: the partially protected is actually a partial (sample) document used as promotional material. Once they pay, you send them a full copy ... with their name watermarked on it.

          "Before entering on an understanding, I have meditated for a long time, and have foreseen what might happen. It is not genius which reveals to me suddenly, secretly, what I have to say or to do in a circumstance unexpected by other people; it is reflection, it is meditation." - Napoleon I

                Cannot prevent them from taking a screenshot (or photograph) of the protected part, and openly publishing it, isn't it? Even if such an infringement is detected, getting a favourable legal solution is most likely a long winded process, except for large companies.
