+.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
+The \s-1EVP\s0 envelope routines are a high level interface to envelope
+encryption. They generate a random key and \s-1IV\s0 (if required) then
+\&\*(L"envelope\*(R" it by using public key encryption. Data can then be
+encrypted using this key.
+.PP
+\&\fIEVP_SealInit()\fR initializes a cipher context \fBctx\fR for encryption
+with cipher \fBtype\fR using a random secret key and \s-1IV\s0. \fBtype\fR is normally
+supplied by a function such as \fIEVP_des_cbc()\fR. The secret key is encrypted
+using one or more public keys, this allows the same encrypted data to be
+decrypted using any of the corresponding private keys. \fBek\fR is an array of
+buffers where the public key encrypted secret key will be written, each buffer
+must contain enough room for the corresponding encrypted key: that is
+\&\fBek[i]\fR must have room for \fBEVP_PKEY_size(pubk[i])\fR bytes. The actual
+size of each encrypted secret key is written to the array \fBekl\fR. \fBpubk\fR is
+an array of \fBnpubk\fR public keys.
+.PP
+The \fBiv\fR parameter is a buffer where the generated \s-1IV\s0 is written to. It must
+contain enough room for the corresponding cipher's \s-1IV\s0, as determined by (for
+example) EVP_CIPHER_iv_length(type).
+.PP
+If the cipher does not require an \s-1IV\s0 then the \fBiv\fR parameter is ignored
+and can be \fB\s-1NULL\s0\fR.
+.PP
+\&\fIEVP_SealUpdate()\fR and \fIEVP_SealFinal()\fR have exactly the same properties
+as the \fIEVP_EncryptUpdate()\fR and \fIEVP_EncryptFinal()\fR routines, as
+documented on the \fIEVP_EncryptInit\fR\|(3) manual
+page.
+.SH "RETURN VALUES"
+.IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
+\&\fIEVP_SealInit()\fR returns 0 on error or \fBnpubk\fR if successful.
+.PP
+\&\fIEVP_SealUpdate()\fR and \fIEVP_SealFinal()\fR return 1 for success and 0 for
+failure.
+.SH "NOTES"
+.IX Header "NOTES"
+Because a random secret key is generated the random number generator
+must be seeded before calling \fIEVP_SealInit()\fR.
+.PP
+The public key must be \s-1RSA\s0 because it is the only OpenSSL public key
+algorithm that supports key transport.
+.PP
+Envelope encryption is the usual method of using public key encryption
+on large amounts of data, this is because public key encryption is slow
+but symmetric encryption is fast. So symmetric encryption is used for
+bulk encryption and the small random symmetric key used is transferred
+using public key encryption.
+.PP
+It is possible to call \fIEVP_SealInit()\fR twice in the same way as
+\&\fIEVP_EncryptInit()\fR. The first call should have \fBnpubk\fR set to 0
+and (after setting any cipher parameters) it should be called again
+with \fBtype\fR set to \s-1NULL\s0.
