+=head1 NAME
+
+EVP_PKEY_print_public, EVP_PKEY_print_private, EVP_PKEY_print_params - public key algorithm printing routines.
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ #include <openssl/evp.h>
+
+ int EVP_PKEY_print_public(BIO *out, const EVP_PKEY *pkey,
+                                int indent, ASN1_PCTX *pctx);
+ int EVP_PKEY_print_private(BIO *out, const EVP_PKEY *pkey,
+                                int indent, ASN1_PCTX *pctx);
+ int EVP_PKEY_print_params(BIO *out, const EVP_PKEY *pkey,
+                                int indent, ASN1_PCTX *pctx);
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+The functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private() and
+EVP_PKEY_print_params() print out the public, private or parameter components
+of key B<pkey> respectively. The key is sent to BIO B<out> in human readable
+form. The parameter B<indent> indicated how far the printout should be indented.
+
+The B<pctx> parameter allows the print output to be finely tuned by using
+ASN1 printing options. If B<pctx> is set to NULL then default values will
+be used.
+
+=head1 NOTES
+
+Currently no public key algorithms include any options in the B<pctx> parameter 
+parameter.
+
+If the key does not include all the components indicated by the function then
+only those contained in the key will be printed. For example passing a public
+key to EVP_PKEY_print_private() will only print the public components.
+
+=head1 RETURN VALUES
+
+These functions all return 1 for success and 0 or a negative value for failure.
+In particular a return value of -2 indicates the operation is not supported by
+the public key algorithm.

+=head1 HISTORY
+
+These functions were first added to OpenSSL 1.0.0.
