A Person Who Owns A Book Downloads The PDF Of The Same Book Through?

I could be wrong but is there an essential part of this question missing? The way I am reading it seems to suggest that you want to create something which looks exactly like the proof of purchase receipt from a company, complete with their watermark and a coupon code. You then go on to wonder if using such a forgery would be a “fault” by a person it was shared with. (This sound suspiciously like “I am only asking for a friend 
”) Wow - Looks like a call-out for the man from Morals-R-Us 
 Yes, in this case, there would be a “Fault” - that of Forgery obviously. If the “person who first downloaded and shared” was totally unaware - and could not reasonably have expected - it was a forgery then the “Fault” (read illegality here) is entirely with the person who created it. Even if t are passing it out for free t are still depriving the rightful owner of a portion of their right to be paid. Obviously, in some instances, one could argue that the owner does not really care if lots of people buy with a discount, as long as it is direct through them and not a 3rd party to who t have to pay commission. T have maintained their “commercial agreement” (that of only posting the fully price so as not to upset re-sellers) so will, one might suppose, not pursue the forger. As I said, I might have mis-read the question, so please feel free to enlighten us all.
