HP MFP Digital Sending Software (DSS) 5.0 - Configure DSS 5 to use Adobe LiveCycle Rights Management

Encrypted element, on line 49, to be False. When this value is False DSS will encrypt the value in
the password element so that a password is not stored in clear text on the DSS server’s disk. DSS
will also change the value of the encrypted element to be TRUE. The check of this value and
subsequent encryption is done when the DSS service restarts. The DSS service must always be
restarted for DSS to see any changes made to this configuration file.
49 <Encrypted>false</Encrypted>
50 <Username>administrator</Username>
51 <Password>password</Password>
The WSClientEndpoint element, on line 57, refers to configuration information lower in the file in
the system.servicemodel section. Once again the value LiveCycleWS is the only value that is
currently supported.
57 <WSClientEndpoint>LiveCycleWS</WSClientEndpoint>
Next in the file are the provider configurations. There are two defined: “Default” and “SignIn”.
Which of these is to be used depends on the configuration done earlier when setting the
Configuration element for each destination. It is possible to use Default for some destinations and
SignIn for others, as long as each provider configuration is properly configured.
The SignIn and Default configurations are almost the same; we will use the SignIn configuration as
an example. The difference between the two is described a little later in this document.

Lines 78 through 83 define the file types that DSS will send to LiveCycle. The 6 types listed are all
the internal DSS names for the variants of pdf that can be created for DSS to send. As can be seen,
4 of the 6 are types created by the OCR engine. It is possible to remove one or more of the pdf
types if desired. DSS will only send pdf file variants to LiveCycle that are included in this
configuration section.
Line 85 and 86 specify the policy that LiveCycle will attach to the file. These names will depend on
the LiveCycle implementation and the DSS admin will need to get the information from the
LiveCycle administrator.
