Data items
The data items that
PDFSeedValueOptionSpec
variables
contain.
addRevInfo
A
boolean
value
that specifies whether revocation checking is performed. A value
of
true
means that the viewer application must
perform the following revocation tasks when signing a signature
field:
If
the
subFilterEx
value is either
adbe_pkcs7_detached
or
adbe_pkcs7_sha1
,
this value must be set as
true
. If the
subFilterEx
value
is
x509_rsa_sha1
, this value must be omitted or
specified as
false
, or the signature process fails.
The
default value of
false
means that the revocation
checking is not performed.
certificateSeedValueOptions
A
CertificateSeedValueOptionSpec
value
that represents a certificate seed value dictionary. A certificate
seed value dictionary provides constraining information that is
used at the time the signature is applied.
CertificateSeeValueOptionSpec
values
contain the following data items:
-
flags
-
An
int
value
that represents the flags associated with this certificate seed value.
A value of 1 means that a signer is required to use only the specified
values for the entry. A value of
0
means that other
values are permissible. The default value is
0
.
-
issuers
-
A
list
of
byte
values
that contains byte-encoded X.509v3 certificates of acceptable issuers.
If the signer's certificate is in the chain of the listed issuers, the
certificate is considered acceptable for signing.
-
keyUsage
-
A
string
value
that specifies an acceptable key-usage extension that must be present
in the signing certificate. Multiple strings are used to specify a
range of acceptable extensions.
Each character in the string
represents a key-usage type, where the order of the characters indicates
the key-usage extension it represents. The first through ninth characters
in the string represent the following key-usage extensions:
1
:
digitalSignature
2
: non-Repudiation
3
:
keyEncipherment
4
: dataEncipherment
5
:
keyAgreement
6
: keyCertSign
7
: crlSign
8
:
encipherOnly
9
: decipherOnly
Any additional characters
are ignored. Any missing characters or characters that are not one
of the above values is set to X.
Each string is composed of
the following characters:
0
: Corresponding key-usage
must not be set.
1
: Corresponding key-usage must be
set.
X
: The state of the corresponding key-usage does
not matter.
Hinweis:
For example, the
string
values
'1'
and
'1XXXXXXXX'
represent
settings where the key-usage type digitalSignature must be set,
and the state of the other key-usage types does not matter.

byte
values
that contains byte-encoded X.509v3 certificates that are acceptable
for signing.
