Request code signing certificate for Creative Suite Plugin. Need to generate .p12.

I am in the process of purchasing a code-signing cert for the purpose of using ZXPSignCmd to deliver our Creative Suite plugin.  I'm not sure how to generate a .p12 file based on a vendor-supplied certificate.

 

The certificate vendor is requesting "Server Platform" information.  Options include:

  • Adobe AIR
  • Apple OX X
  • Microsoft Authenticode
  • Microsoft Office VBA
  • Sun Java
  • Mozilla
  • Other

 

I'm not sure what to select.

 

The process I'm using generally follows:  https://wwwimages2.adobe.com/content/dam/acom/en/devnet/creativesuite/pdfs/SigningTechNote_CC.pdf. I am attempting to sign our extension on (1.) a Mac (ZXPSignCmdMac) and then (2.) Windows.  In summary, I don't know how to get a .p12 file given the documentation I'm reading.

Self-signing is also possible. Here's our more recent documentation: https://github.com/Adobe-CEP/Getting-Started-guides/tree/master/Package%20Distribute%20Install

It looks like AdobeAir, Apple Developer, JavaSoft Developer or Microsoft Authenticode are recommended, according to p. 6 of the linked document. (https://wwwimages2.adobe.com/content/dam/acom/en/devnet/creativesuite/pdfs/SigningTechNote_CC.pdf)
