On Linux, OpenOffice document signature is done via the Mozilla
firefox certificate store. On Windows, it is done via the Windows
certificate store.
I suppose the procedure is as follows:
1. Get/create a personal X.509 key/certificate with e-mail as the common
name. Self-signed personal key/certificates should be OK.
2. Import it into the Mozilla firefox certificate store or Windows
certificate store.
3. Close OpenOffice, including the quick run icon, if it is currently
running. Restart it.
4. Save some document with something.
5. Sign the document from [File]=>[Digital Signature].
Before 4.0, the personal key/certificate in the Mozilla certificate
store will be shown in [File]=>[Digital Signature]. On 4.1, this is
missing.
Digital signature is an important part to OpenOffice macro security
and document integrity. If this is unintended, we will have to do
something to fix it.
