Thank you!
I will look into how to parse CER/DER/P12..
Do you know of any places off hand to start my search?
Regards,

P7C, CER Examples?
I think you are quiet confused about signing and
certificate types.
P12 and PFX are just containers for private+public
keys.
CER, DER and so on are also just encoded certificates
- mostly only used for public keys however - but you
can also encode private keys of course.
It boils down that every container/encoding you
specified is always an X.509 certificate - just in
different forms.
It is up to you to create a construct to parse
CER/DER/P12 whatever to sign your pdf - itext has
nothing to do with it.
You could use bouncycastle for example to parse these
encoded certificates an get a generic PrivateKey or
PublicKey java object, which can be used for signing.
