+    <p>The <c>public_key</c> application uses the 
+    Crypto application to preform cryptographic operations and the
+    ASN-1 application to handle PKIX-ASN-1 specifications, hence
+    these applications must be loaded for the <c>public_key</c> application to work. 
+    In an embedded environment this means they must be started with
+    <c>application:start/[1,2]</c> before the <c>public_key</c> application is 
+    started.</p>
+  </section>
+ 
+  <section>
+    <title>ERROR LOGGER AND EVENT HANDLERS</title>
+    <p> The <c>public_key</c> application is a library application
+    and does not use the error logger. The functions will either sucssed
+    or fail with a runtime error.
