As developers, Philipp and me (Thomas) were frustrated with the lack of options for easily signing PDFs via CLI. Most solutions were either proprietary, had no CLI interface or had restrictive licenses, making it difficult for us to use them in our projects.
That's why we created open-pdf-sign - a simple, easy-to-use tool for signing PDF from the commandline. We designed with developers in mind, and released it under the Apache-2.0-license.
We also added a configurator that configures your Nginx server. It will automatically install and configure your Nginx so all your PDFs will be signed with your SSL certificate on the fly. You can even use your existing Let’s Encrypt certificates.
We believe that open-pdf-sign will be a valuable tool for any developer looking to quickly and easily sign PDFs. Give it a try and let us know what you think!
