Thanks for the request, @max149239.
A
.p7mfile is a signed envelope (PKCS #7 / CAdES, common for Italian e-signatures): the original file, here a PDF, wrapped together with its signature. The signature isn't encryption, so the original can be taken out as it is.So P7M → the file inside looks doable, and fits Filee: no password, no protection to break, just unwrapping.
One note: the result is the plain original, so the signature (and the proof it gives) isn't part of it any more. Keep the
.p7mif you need that proof.Keeping this open as a format request.

@max149239 Filee now opens signed
.p7mfiles (#1096). It ships in the next version.document.pdf.p7mon Filee and choose PDF: you getdocument.pdf, the PDF inside, without the signature envelope.invoice.xml.p7m(Italian e-invoices) gives the XML, and you can go straight to another format too, e.g. P7M → JPG for the PDF's pages..p7mif you need the proof that it was signed.smime.p7m) and detached signatures (no file inside) are refused with a message saying which one it is.
