Frequently asked questions
Do I need to know the password?
Yes. This tool removes protection you have the password for; it does not “crack” unknown PDFs.
Is the password transmitted?
No, unlocking is performed locally in your browser.
Is the content changed?
No — only the encryption is removed; the content stays identical.
