145.SH "DESCRIPTION"
146.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
147The \fBpkcs7\fR command processes PKCS#7 files in \s-1DER\s0 or \s-1PEM\s0 format.
148.SH "COMMAND OPTIONS"
149.IX Header "COMMAND OPTIONS"
150.IP "\fB\-inform DER|PEM\fR" 4
151.IX Item "-inform DER|PEM"
152This specifies the input format. \fB\s-1DER\s0\fR format is \s-1DER\s0 encoded PKCS#7
153v1.5 structure.\fB\s-1PEM\s0\fR (the default) is a base64 encoded version of
154the \s-1DER\s0 form with header and footer lines.
155.IP "\fB\-outform DER|PEM\fR" 4
156.IX Item "-outform DER|PEM"
157This specifies the output format, the options have the same meaning as the
158\&\fB\-inform\fR option.
159.IP "\fB\-in filename\fR" 4
160.IX Item "-in filename"
161This specifies the input filename to read from or standard input if this
162option is not specified.
163.IP "\fB\-out filename\fR" 4
164.IX Item "-out filename"
165specifies the output filename to write to or standard output by
166default.
167.IP "\fB\-print_certs\fR" 4
168.IX Item "-print_certs"
169prints out any certificates or CRLs contained in the file. They are
170preceded by their subject and issuer names in one line format.
171.IP "\fB\-text\fR" 4
172.IX Item "-text"
173prints out certificates details in full rather than just subject and
174issuer names.
175.IP "\fB\-noout\fR" 4
176.IX Item "-noout"
177don't output the encoded version of the PKCS#7 structure (or certificates
178is \fB\-print_certs\fR is set).
179.IP "\fB\-engine id\fR" 4
180.IX Item "-engine id"
181specifying an engine (by its unique \fBid\fR string) will cause \fBpkcs7\fR
182to attempt to obtain a functional reference to the specified engine,
183thus initialising it if needed. The engine will then be set as the default
184for all available algorithms.
