+=head1 NAME
+
+crl2pkcs7 - Create a PKCS#7 structure from a CRL and certificates.
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+B<openssl> B<pkcs7>
+[B<-inform PEM|DER>]
+[B<-outform PEM|DER>]
+[B<-in filename>]
+[B<-out filename>]
+[B<-print_certs>]
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+The B<crl2pkcs7> command takes an optional CRL and one or more
+certificates and converts them into a PKCS#7 degenerate "certificates
+only" structure.
+
+=head1 COMMAND OPTIONS
+
+=over 4
+
+=item B<-inform DER|PEM>
+
+This specifies the CRL input format. B<DER> format is DER encoded CRL
+structure.B<PEM> (the default) is a base64 encoded version of
+the DER form with header and footer lines.
+
+=item B<-outform DER|PEM>
+
+This specifies the PKCS#7 structure output format. B<DER> format is DER
+encoded PKCS#7 structure.B<PEM> (the default) is a base64 encoded version of
+the DER form with header and footer lines.
+
+=item B<-in filename>
+
+This specifies the input filename to read a CRL from or standard input if this
+option is not specified.
+
+=item B<-out filename>
+
+specifies the output filename to write the PKCS#7 structure to or standard
+output by default.
+
+=item B<-certfile filename>
+
+specifies a filename containing one or more certificates in B<PEM> format.
+All certificates in the file will be added to the PKCS#7 structure. This
+option can be used more than once to read certificates form multiple
+files.
+
+=item B<-nocrl>
+
+normally a CRL is included in the output file. With this option no CRL is
+included in the output file and a CRL is not read from the input file.
+
+=back
+
+=head1 EXAMPLES
+
+Create a PKCS#7 structure from a certificate and CRL:
+
+ openssl crl2pkcs7 -in crl.pem -certfile cert.pem -out p7.pem
+
+Creates a PKCS#7 structure in DER format with no CRL from several
+different certificates:
+
+ openssl crl2pkcs7 -nocrl -certfile newcert.pem 
+	-certfile demoCA/cacert.pem -outform DER -out p7.der
+
+=head1 NOTES
+
+The output file is a PKCS#7 signed data structure containing no signers and
+just certificates and an optional CRL.
+
+This utility can be used to send certificates and CAs to Netscape as part of
+the certificate enrollment process. This involves sending the DER encoded output
+as MIME type application/x-x509-user-cert.
+
+The B<PEM> encoded form with the header and footer lines removed can be used to
+install user certificates and CAs in MSIE using the Xenroll control.
