(In reply to Andre Guerreiro from comment #63) > I also thought of adding the feature to pdfinfo but it seems wrong to mix up > something which performs various computations and relies on external state > (NSS cert DB) to pdfinfo which just reads metadata from the file itself. pdfinfo already performs various computations. If the file is encrypted it has to decrypt the objects to read the file. Reading from other sources is not an issue if a switch is used to enable the signature checking. It seems pointless to me to add an entire new utility to perform one function that can be enabled by adding a switch to pdfinfo. I'll leave it to Albert decide. But if we keep pdfsigverify I suggest making it more generic to allow for the possibility of later adding the capability to sign pdfs. eg call it pdfsig and if verifying signatures it not a fast operation, maybe enable the check with a switch and make the default operation (ie no switch specified) report whether the pdf contains a signature. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to evince in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1085526 Title: ubuntu pdf doc viewer will not let me sign a document Status in Poppler: Confirmed Status in evince package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Just updated in last few weeks, i think ubuntu 12.4 To sign the document i have to send it to my neighbors windows computer, open it, sign it, then send it, then I get a note from echo sign that the document was sent with my signature.
