Text Formats
The wizard can also import certificates and certificate chains in text formats. Here’s
what you should be aware of when using the wizard to install a certificate or
certificate chain in text format:
The text format must begin with the following line:
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
Following this line should be the certificate data, which can be in any of the binary
formats described in “Binary Formats” on page 310. This data should be base-64
encoded as described by RFC 1113 (for details, see
http://www.scit.wlv.ac.uk/rfc/rfc11xx/RFC1113.html
).
Following the certificate data must be this line:
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
Step 1. Select the Operation
Indicate whether you want to request a certificate or install a certificate.
For the sake of completing the instructions that follow, assume that you chose to

Step 2. Select the Certificate or Certificate Chain
Select the certificate you want to install.
The drop-down list shows various options. Depending on whether you want to
install a CMS certificate, any other trusted CA certificate, or a CA certificate chain,
