MyDWFSigner by KryptoKoder
MyDWFSigner is a simple tool to digitally sign DWF (Design Web Format) documents on a Mac OS X system. DWF documents signed by MyDWFSigner are correctly displayed by Autodesk's Design Review 2011. MyDWFSigner supports the PKCS#11, PKCS#12 and Apple Keychain Key Stores.
Like Autodesk's Design Review 2011, digital signatures of DWF documents are only possible after the files are converted to DWFx. At the moment MyDWFSigner does not yet convert DWF to DWFx, so to be able to sign a DWF document the same needs to be saved as DWFx.
Besides signing DWFx files using a graphical interface MyDWFSigner also provides a command line utility to convert DWF files from older versions (say, 00.42) to the newer DWF version 6.00, and to merge many DWF files into one.
MyDWFSigner is targeted at Mac OS X professional users of CAD products and requires a license to be used. Without a license it can only use the evaluation PKCS#12 keystore that is shipped with the installer. To be able to test MyDWFSigner with other keystores, including smart cards (PKCS#11), please contact KryptoKoder and request an evaluation license, which will be valid for one month.
Evaluation Keystore
Installation and configuration of the certificates follows the same steps as for
MyPDFSigner (see the Manual). However without a license
the only keystore that can be configured and used for signing is the evaluation
PKCS#12 keystore shipped with the installer. To configure it, select the
"PKCS12 KEYSTORE FILE" option, then click "Change", and enter the following information
below and click "Save":
File: /Applications/MyDWFSigner.app/Contents/Resources/Java/tests/mydwfsigner-eval.p12
Password: evaluation
Alias: Evaluating MyDWFSigner
Command Line Utility
MyDWFSigner provides a command line utility to convert older DWF files to the newer version 6.00, and to merge many DWF files into one. The files to be merged need to be in version 6.00. To use the utility open a terminal and type MyDWFSigner to get help:
