### Examples

```js
// Create an X.509 certificate from a PKCS#12 store, which should contain a private key.
let certificateHolder = aw.DigitalSignatures.CertificateHolder.create(base.myDir + "morzal.pfx", "aw");

// Create a comment, date, and decryption password which will be applied with our new digital signature.
let signOptions = new aw.DigitalSignatures.SignOptions
{
  Comments = "Comment",
  SignTime = Date.now(),
  DecryptionPassword = "docPassword"
};

// Set a local system filename for the unsigned input document, and an output filename for its new digitally signed copy.
string inputFileName = base.myDir + "Encrypted.docx";
string outputFileName = base.artifactsDir + "DigitalSignatureUtil.decryptionPassword.docx";

aw.DigitalSignatures.DigitalSignatureUtil.sign(inputFileName, outputFileName, certificateHolder, signOptions);
```
