Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a method for preparing, distributing, and vending a digital document, and a method for managing access to the digital document by providing a step for enciphering one of information parts by a part enciphering key, and preparing an enciphered part to be housed in an envelope. SOLUTION: A document part 203 can be enciphered. The enciphered document part 203 can be a 'valuable content' (for example, the chapter of a book, high resolution JPEG picture, or MPEG stream) to be purchased by a user. A non-enciphered part is a 'thesis' (for example, a book review by the others, index, summarization, or low resolution JPEG picture). The purpose of the non-enciphered part is to allow the user to attain the 'preview', 'sampling' or 'browse' of the content of the enciphered envelope before actually purchasing it.
