Removing usage rights from PDF documents

You can use the Reader Extensions service to remove usage rights from a rights-enabled document. Removing usage rights from a rights-enabled PDF document is also necessary in order to perform other LiveCycle operations on it. For example, you must digitally sign (or certify) a PDF document before you set usage rights. Therefore, to perform operations on a rights-enabled document, do these tasks:

  • remove usage rights from the PDF document

  • perform the other operations such as digitally signing the document

  • reapply usage rights to the document
