That is where the Auto-Offline lease period comes in. You can allow
offline access for a certain number of days. When the user first
downloads the document, it also downloads a key which controls access to
the document while it is offline. When the lease period expires, the
user must once again authenticate against the server when attempting to
access the document. Then the user can again use the document offline
for a the same number of days.
As far as the servers are concerned...you can probably have a single
installation of Policy Server, but have your 3 ebook applications
connect to the same instance of Policy Server. Policy Server provides
the ability to communicate to it via Web Services (SOAP) or EJB.
I'm not sure of the sales channels in the Netherlands. You should
contact an adobe sales rep for more information:
