Describe the feature you'd like
It would be great if we could define system wide or perhaps per book that it is not allowed to export the book.

Describe the benefits this feature would bring to BookStack users
Bookstack is a important wiki for us with a lot of knowledge, that users when they leave can easy export with a single click. Providing the option to hide the export button system or book wide can help to prevent leaking knowledge.

I know this will not prevent it completely, as of couse someone could print or copy page by page but it takes much more effort/time then just to click one button.

Hi @JtheBAB,
Thanks for proposing this feature.
This has already been requested under #1251 so I'll therefore close this as a duplicate.
My thoughts on this kind of feature can be found in my first comment there. I also have posted a code sample that allows you to hide the buttons in my second comment. I'll add a new sample to that issue that works with the recent redesign.
