Hi everyone,

I was wondering if you know a way to use the generated OpenPGP key created trough Thunderbird to sign PDF’s ?

(Devuan distro)

Thanks.

    OpenPGP is kind of like the opposite of that - it does a lot of things, and none of them particularly well. To quote:

    PGP does a mediocre job of signing things, a relatively poor job of encrypting them with passwords, and a pretty bad job of encrypting them with public keys. PGP is not an especially good way to securely transfer a file. It’s a clunky way to sign packages. It’s not great at protecting backups. It’s a downright dangerous way to converse in secure messages.

    minisign is more in the UNIX spirit.
