(DataFlex) Sign PDF and Provide Certificates in Chain to Root
Discusses how to provide certificates in the chain of authentication to the root certificate if the certs are not available to Chilkat.
If you provided a .p12 or .pfx, then it is likely the .p12/.pfx already contains the certs in the chain of authentication, and Chilkat will automatically find them.
Also, if running on a Windows system, then Chilkat will likely automatically find the intermediate CA certs and root CA cert as needed.
This example demonstrates how to explicitly provide the CA certs in the chain of authentication to any Chilkat application that is signing.
Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.92 or greater.
Use ChilkatAx-win32.pkg

// This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.
// Assuming you don't have the intermediate CA and root CA certificates for the chain of authentication, then you'll need to locate them from your CA, download, and then use as shown below.
// For example, if your certificate has this certification path:
//
// Then you should Google "AC DIGITALSIGN RFB G2".
// In this case, the resulting URL found by Google is: https://www.digitalsigncertificadora.com.br/repositorio/RFB
// You can download the certs from https://www.digitalsigncertificadora.com.br/repositorio/rfb/ACDIGITALSIGNRFB.p7b
// Load the certs from a .p7b into an XML certificate vault.
// Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.92 or greater. The ability to load .p7b files containing multiple certificates was added in v9.5.0.92
