A Java Keystore file is just a container for one or more keys and/or

You may have to do some tricks to convert from one format into another,
and/or to import those things into your keystore.
What file type(s) are you being given?
I don't actually know at this time. But since I posted the question,
I've been doing some experiments with Keystore Explorer, and I learned
how to go from a JKS to the separate key and certificate files that
Apache HTTPD expects, and back to a brand new JKS, and actually have
something Tomcat can use, so hopefully, I'll be able to talk the
customer through the process of setting up a keystore.
Back when I first started using KSE, I still had to create the initial
keystore and keypair in keytool, or Tomcat wouldn't accept it (some sort
of password issue, as I recall); it would seem that KSE has since been
improved.
