Embedding Digital Certificate to Pdf

I would like to embed the digital certificate obtained by using public key on the pdf form. The AEM site 

https://experienceleague.adobe.com/en/docs/experience-manager-65/content/forms/developer-reference/programming-aem-forms-jee/performing-service-operations-using-apis/digitally-signing-certifying-documents

 

says 

NOTE
Before you can digitally sign a PDF document, you must ensure that you add the certificate to AEM Forms. A certificate is added using administration console or programmatically using the Trust Manager API. (See Importing Credentials by using the Trust Manager API.)
 
I generate the certificate and store in s3 bucket. Does AEM have a storage to store the certificates . The AEM documentation says loading certificate from administration console. 
 
This is not clear to me

Hi, 

 

You can load this into the KeyStore, from which you can then retrieve the certificate. This blog explains the process, though it may not exactly match your use case. You can follow it as a pattern: https://joao.ws/how-to-use-the-aem-key-store/

Hope this helps

This is  one way where I can use AEM KeyStore. We are being told to look at other secure stores than AEmKeyStore. So your suggestion works if I go with AEm Key Store. What If I use AWS Certificates Manager?
