NAME

6       openssl-pkcs7 - PKCS#7 command
7

SYNOPSIS

9       openssl pkcs7 [-help] [-inform DER|PEM] [-outform DER|PEM] [-in
10       filename] [-out filename] [-print] [-print_certs] [-text] [-noout]
11       [-engine id] [-provider name] [-provider-path path] [-propquery propq]
12

DESCRIPTION

14       This command processes PKCS#7 files.  Note that it only understands
15       PKCS#7 v 1.5 as specified in IETF RFC 2315.  It cannot currently parse
16       CMS as described in IETF RFC 2630.
17

OPTIONS

19       -help
20           Print out a usage message.
21
22       -inform DER|PEM, -outform DER|PEM
23           The input and formats; the default is PEM.  See
24           openssl-format-options(1) for details.
25
26           The data is a PKCS#7 Version 1.5 structure.
27
28       -in filename
29           This specifies the input filename to read from or standard input if
30           this option is not specified.
31
32       -out filename
33           Specifies the output filename to write to or standard output by
34           default.
35
36       -print
37           Print out the full PKCS7 object.
38
39       -print_certs
40           Prints out any certificates or CRLs contained in the file. They are
41           preceded by their subject and issuer names in one line format.
42
43       -text
44           Prints out certificate details in full rather than just subject and
45           issuer names.
46
47       -noout
48           Don't output the encoded version of the PKCS#7 structure (or
49           certificates if -print_certs is set).
50
51       -engine id
52           See "Engine Options" in openssl(1).  This option is deprecated.
53
54       -provider name
55       -provider-path path
56       -propquery propq
57           See "Provider Options" in openssl(1), provider(7), and property(7).

60       Convert a PKCS#7 file from PEM to DER:
