<p>converting .pem to .der and back gives me a CA cert with 2531 bytes while the original is just 729 bytes. why is that and how to communicate this unexpected result to the user ?</p>

<p dir="auto">Hmm, the pem format is also used to output information about the certificate itself (because it is textual). There is already an issue open for it;lets move the discussion there: <a href="https://gitlab.com/gnutls/gnutls/issues/487" data-original="https://gitlab.com/gnutls/gnutls/issues/487" data-link="false" data-link-reference="true" data-project="179611" data-issue="12200276" data-reference-type="issue" data-container="body" data-placement="bottom" title="certtool should be able to just emit PEM data without textual annotations above it." class="gfm gfm-issue has-tooltip">#487</a></p>
