Unfortunately iText needs more than algorithms and RSA public/private
key implementation, most of those already present in jdk 1.4. There's
also PKCS#7 assembly and disassembly and other asn1 operations that the

the provider is already there.

If you run the test code:

writer.close();
Do you have anything writen to output.txt?
