Hi,

I am trying to print from an Applet after signing it with Duke.

I have followed the "DOIT" scirpt given in your security page "Signed Applet Example"

I downloaded Duke.x509, sign_directive_Duke and cert_directive_Duke.

The code i have used is :

PrintJob p = getToolkit().getPrintJob(null, null, null);

if ( p != null )
{
Graphics g = (Graphics)p.getGraphics();
paint(g);
g.dispose();
}
p.end();

..

This is raising a Security Exception when run in HotJava as follows :

sun.applet.AppletSecurityException: checkgetprintjob
at sun.hotjava.security.PolicyHigh.checkPrintJobAccess(PolicyHigh.java:341)
at sun.hotjava.security.HotjavaSecurity.checkPrintJobAccess(HotjavaSecurity.java:440)
....

Can u suggest some technique for signing and printing.

I went through the Signing Example quite a few times but am not able to crack it.

Thanks in advance.
