[Feature request] Verify PDF certificate signature

Open maxi322 opened this issue 2 years ago • 4 comments

The tool lets you create signatures with certificates but there is currently no way to verify them.

An elegant solution would be to include such a functionality within the reader.

If you're referring to checking if the certificate is trusted or not, then it wouldn't be possible since some certificates are self signed. Everything else should definitely be achievable though.

True, but an option would be to include an optional custom trust store file like a NSS certificate database. When this is not included it could use the mozilla one for example and only verify official certificates.
