                  throws java.io.IOException
        Description copied from interface: AVAValueConverter
        Converts a string to a DER encoded attribute value. Specify the order of DER tags to use if more than one encoding is possible. Currently Directory Strings can have different order for backwards compatibility. By 2003 all should be UTF8String.
