1. A method comprising:
- receiving, by an electronic device, a modular document that is composed of plural parts, wherein at least a particular one of the parts is associated with an access right policy that restricts access to the particular part;
in response to a request to access the modular document, determining based on the access right policy whether content of the particular part is accessible in the electronic device; and
in response to determining that the content of the particular part is inaccessible in the electronic device, accessing an access mechanism associated with the particular part to determine an action to take with respect to the particular part when presenting the modular document.

Abstract
A modular document is composed of plural parts, where at least a particular one of the parts is associated with an access right policy that restricts access to the particular part. In response to a request to access the modular document, it is determined based on the access right policy whether content of the particular part is accessible in an electronic device. In response to determining that the content of the particular part is inaccessible in the electronic device, an access mechanism associated with the particular part is accessed to determine an action to take with respect to the particular part when presenting the modular document.

13. An electronic device comprising:
-
a storage media to store a modular document that is composed of plural parts; and a processor to; associate an access right policy with at least a particular one of the parts that defines one or more criteria under which content of the particular part is inaccessible; and associate an access mechanism with the particular part that defines an action to take with respect to the particular part when presenting the modular document and when the content of the particular part is inaccessible based on the access right policy. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. An article comprising at least one computer-readable storage medium containing instructions that upon execution cause a processor to:
-
receive a modular document that is composed of plural component documents that are to be combined to allow presentation of the modular document, wherein at least a particular one of the component documents is associated with an access right policy that restricts access to the particular component document; in response to a request to access the modular document, determine based on the access right policy whether content of the particular component document is accessible in the electronic device; and in response to determining that the content of the particular component document is inaccessible in the electronic device, access an access mechanism associated with the particular component document to determine an action to take with respect to the particular component document when presenting the modular document. - View Dependent Claims (20)
