OpenOffice supports digital signatures. To use it, you have to get an X.509 certificate from a certificate authority. There are commercial ones, such as Verisign, but there are also free ones, at least for personal use. I got mine from www.comodo.com. A digital signature has nothing do do with lines you leave on the document. There's info on digital certificates in the OpenOffice help. You can also use the X.509 certificates for email signing and encryption. http://www.comodo.com/resources/small-business/digital-certificates4.php https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X.509 ------------------------------------------- List Conduct Guidelines: http://openoffice.apache.org/list-conduct.html To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
