Stefan, Paul,
I guess ALOAHA is what I am looking for.
I'll try the Aloaha Smart Card Connector as soon as I am back at my client
office.
So it would be fine to sign PDF files.
But I am not sure the financial firm I am trying to send the file to is
ready to handle the PDF format instead of TXT format.
So my last question is: is there a way to sign TXT files?
Regards
Nicolas
