How to Code Sign a CEP InDesign Extension with DigiCert

Hi,

 

We are manintaining an old CEP IND Extension for all our customers.

Until now, we used ZXPSignCmd.exe to build the ZXP and sign it using a *.p12 format cert.

 

Our 3 year old DigiCert code signing cert expies in 1 (!!!) day. I got a new cert from DigiCert, but a private key is no longer provided due to the new FIPS standard. Thefore, ZXPSignCmd.exe cannot be used.

 

How do a create the ZXP and and sign it without a private key (*.p12 format cert)? Tomorrow our customers will no longer be able to use our software!!!

TIA!

Using windows `signtool` worked for us with digicert digilocker 
verifying signature using ZXP sign command shows success.

ZXPSignCmd -verify client_xxx.zxp -certInfo
*********** Certificate Information ***********

OU: 
DN: /C=US/ST=NY/O=Acrolinx/CN=Acrolinx

Revoked: false
Timestamp: Valid and within certificate validity dates at time of signing
Signing Certificate: Valid (from 2016-04-27 until 2027-07-15)
***********************************************
