Is it possible to generate Adobe Digital ID(.pfx certificate file) on Linux via command-line?

 

I only need to generate a valid .pfx certificate file. My purpose is automating our business flow. By valid I mean according to these trusted authorities:

Hmm, I don't think an Adobe Digital ID is accepted by these trust authorities. They only trust certificates they sell and make themselves, so far as I know. Did you try making one to check?

I just want to generate a valid .pfx certificate file on server-side to automate some process.

 

My manager buys certificates from one of those providers. Maybe I'm using the wrong terms like Adobe Digital ID, etc...

 

Do you know any way to generate a .pfx certificate programmatically? Like an API or command-line application for Linux?

There are many ways to make certificate files, using openssl command for instance. But I repeat; they won't be accepted by those providers, as nobody will have checked the details. When you buy a certificate, you aren't just paying someone to run a command for you. You're paying them to check your identity at some level, and to put their reputation on the line to say they have done that.
