Testing the authorization handler

To test the external authorization handler, you can create a policy that uses it. For example, if you create a policy that uses the external authorization handler created in this section and apply the policy to a document, you are then only able to print the document once. That is, once you print the policy-protected document, the print menu option is not enabled.

Note: After the document is printed, the print permission is removed provided that the PDF document is closed and then opened again.

After you create a policy that uses the external authorization handler, you can secure a PDF document with the policy. (See Applying Policies to PDF Documents.)

To create a policy that uses the external authorization handler

1.	Log into LiveCycle Administration Console.

2.	Click Services > LiveCycle Rights Management ES > Policies.

3.	Click on a given policy set.

4.	Click the Policies tab and click New.

5.	In the Name field, specify a name for the policy.

6.	In the External Authorization Providers section, click PrintControlSPISample.

7.	Click Save. A green check mark will appear next to the PrintControlSPISample item indicating that it is active.

8.	Finish creating the policy and save it.

Note: After you create a policy that uses the external authorization handler, you can protect a PDF document with the policy. (See Applying Policies to PDF Documents.)
