Description Timur 2018-02-28 09:04:39 UTC
OpenPGP is a new feature and it should be documented. Also X.509.
And digital signatures should be documented and updated, because it's general now, without details which perplex users and make new bugs.

It should also be explained how LO finds certificate manager on different platforms and what a user can do if s/he gets a message "Could not find any certificate manager".

I guess OpenPGP is https://help.libreoffice.org/7.0/en-US/text/shared/guide/openpgp.html.

X.509 I see only at https://help.libreoffice.org/7.0/en-US/text/shared/01/ref_pdf_export_digital_signature.html and not for PDF signing. 
I converted bug 125636 for that.(In reply to Timur from comment #1)

Not done. Can also be bug 125636.
