Description

LibreSign not working with Nextcloud encryption.

When the PDF file is uploaded, it is encrypted. libresign-cli will try to parse the encrypted file. The result is the following cryptic message:

Impossible get metadata from this file. Check if you installed correctly the libresign-cli.
