Create Egypt ITIDA CAdES-BES Signature with Automatic JSON Canonicalization

See more Egypt ITIDA Examples

Demonstrates how to create a .p7s signature that fits Egypt's ITIDA requirements where Chilkat automatically does the ITIDA JSON canonicalization.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.75 or greater.
