You can delete an existing policy when it is no longer
required. After a policy is deleted, it cannot be used to protect
documents. However, existing policy-protected documents that are
using the policy are still protected.
To delete a policy, you specify the policy to delete and the
policy set that the policy belongs to. The user whose settings are
used to invoke LiveCycle must have permission to delete the policy;
otherwise, an exception occurs. Likewise, if you attempt to delete
a policy that does not exist, an exception occurs.
Methods for deleting policies
Users and administrators
can use the Rights Management web pages. (See “Delete a policy”
in Rights Management Help or LiveCycle Administration Console Help.)
