+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
+\&\fBX509_NAME_print_ex()\fR prints a human readable version of \fInm\fR to BIO \fIout\fR.
+Each line (for multiline formats) is indented by \fIindent\fR spaces. The
+output format can be extensively customised by use of the \fIflags\fR parameter.
+.PP
+\&\fBX509_NAME_print_ex_fp()\fR is identical to \fBX509_NAME_print_ex()\fR
+except the output is written to FILE pointer \fIfp\fR.
+.PP
+\&\fBX509_NAME_oneline()\fR prints an ASCII version of \fIa\fR to \fIbuf\fR.
+This supports multi\-valued RDNs and escapes \fB/\fR and \fB+\fR characters in values.
+If \fIbuf\fR is \fBNULL\fR then a buffer is dynamically allocated and returned, and
+\&\fIsize\fR is ignored.
+Otherwise, at most \fIsize\fR bytes will be written, including the ending \*(Aq\e0\*(Aq,
+and \fIbuf\fR is returned.
+.PP
+\&\fBX509_NAME_print()\fR prints out \fIname\fR to \fIbp\fR on a single line.
+The \fIobase\fR parameter is ignored and retained only for API compatibility.
+.SH NOTES
+.IX Header "NOTES"
+The functions \fBX509_NAME_oneline()\fR and \fBX509_NAME_print()\fR
+produce a non standard output form, they don\*(Aqt handle multi\-character fields and
+have various quirks and inconsistencies.
+Their use is strongly discouraged in new applications and they could
+be deprecated in a future release.
+.PP
+Although there are a large number of possible flags for most purposes
+\&\fBXN_FLAG_ONELINE\fR, \fBXN_FLAG_MULTILINE\fR or \fBXN_FLAG_RFC2253\fR will suffice.
+As noted on the \fBASN1_STRING_print_ex\fR\|(3) manual page
+for UTF8 terminals the \fBASN1_STRFLGS_ESC_MSB\fR should be unset: so for example
+\&\fBXN_FLAG_ONELINE & ~ASN1_STRFLGS_ESC_MSB\fR would be used.
+.PP
+The complete set of the flags supported by \fBX509_NAME_print_ex()\fR is listed below.
+.PP
+Several options can be ored together.
+.PP
+The options \fBXN_FLAG_SEP_COMMA_PLUS\fR, \fBXN_FLAG_SEP_CPLUS_SPC\fR,
+\&\fBXN_FLAG_SEP_SPLUS_SPC\fR and \fBXN_FLAG_SEP_MULTILINE\fR
+determine the field separators to use.
+Two distinct separators are used between distinct RelativeDistinguishedName
+components and separate values in the same RDN for a multi\-valued RDN.
+Multi\-valued RDNs are currently very rare
+so the second separator will hardly ever be used.
+.PP
+\&\fBXN_FLAG_SEP_COMMA_PLUS\fR uses comma and plus as separators.
+\&\fBXN_FLAG_SEP_CPLUS_SPC\fR uses comma and plus with spaces:
+this is more readable that plain comma and plus.
+\&\fBXN_FLAG_SEP_SPLUS_SPC\fR uses spaced semicolon and plus.
+\&\fBXN_FLAG_SEP_MULTILINE\fR uses spaced newline and plus respectively.
+.PP
+If \fBXN_FLAG_DN_REV\fR is set the whole DN is printed in reversed order.
+.PP
+The fields \fBXN_FLAG_FN_SN\fR, \fBXN_FLAG_FN_LN\fR, \fBXN_FLAG_FN_OID\fR,
+\&\fBXN_FLAG_FN_NONE\fR determine how a field name is displayed. It will
+use the short name (e.g. CN) the long name (e.g. commonName) always
+use OID numerical form (normally OIDs are only used if the field name is not
+recognised) and no field name respectively.
+.PP
+If \fBXN_FLAG_SPC_EQ\fR is set then spaces will be placed around the \*(Aq=\*(Aq character
+separating field names and values.
+.PP
+If \fBXN_FLAG_DUMP_UNKNOWN_FIELDS\fR is set then the encoding of unknown fields is
+printed instead of the values.
+.PP
+If \fBXN_FLAG_FN_ALIGN\fR is set then field names are padded to 20 characters: this
+is only of use for multiline format.
+.PP
+Additionally all the options supported by \fBASN1_STRING_print_ex()\fR can be used to
+control how each field value is displayed.
+.PP
+In addition a number options can be set for commonly used formats.
+.PP
+\&\fBXN_FLAG_RFC2253\fR sets options which produce an output compatible with RFC2253.
+It is equivalent to:
+ \f(CW\*(C`ASN1_STRFLGS_RFC2253 | XN_FLAG_SEP_COMMA_PLUS | XN_FLAG_DN_REV
+ | XN_FLAG_FN_SN | XN_FLAG_DUMP_UNKNOWN_FIELDS\*(C'\fR
+.PP
+\&\fBXN_FLAG_ONELINE\fR is a more readable one line format which is the same as:
+ \f(CW\*(C`ASN1_STRFLGS_RFC2253 | ASN1_STRFLGS_ESC_QUOTE | XN_FLAG_SEP_CPLUS_SPC
+ | XN_FLAG_SPC_EQ | XN_FLAG_FN_SN\*(C'\fR
+.PP
+\&\fBXN_FLAG_MULTILINE\fR is a multiline format which is the same as:
+ \f(CW\*(C`ASN1_STRFLGS_ESC_CTRL | ASN1_STRFLGS_ESC_MSB | XN_FLAG_SEP_MULTILINE
+ | XN_FLAG_SPC_EQ | XN_FLAG_FN_LN | XN_FLAG_FN_ALIGN\*(C'\fR
+.PP
+\&\fBXN_FLAG_COMPAT\fR uses a format identical to \fBX509_NAME_print()\fR:
+in fact it calls \fBX509_NAME_print()\fR internally.
+.SH "RETURN VALUES"
+.IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
+\&\fBX509_NAME_oneline()\fR returns a valid string on success or NULL on error.
+.PP
+\&\fBX509_NAME_print()\fR returns 1 on success or 0 on error.
+.PP
+\&\fBX509_NAME_print_ex()\fR and \fBX509_NAME_print_ex_fp()\fR return 1 on success or 0 on
+error if the \fBXN_FLAG_COMPAT\fR is set, which is the same as \fBX509_NAME_print()\fR.
+Otherwise, it returns \-1 on error or other values on success.
