Understanding PDF Protection

User Passwords

Some PDFs require a password just to open them. This type of protection prevents anyone without the password from viewing the document at all. If you've forgotten this password for your own document, this tool can help you regain access.

Owner Restrictions

Some documents are locked from printing, copying text, or editing, even if they open freely. These restrictions are set by the owner to protect their content. This tool can remove these restrictions so you can use your own documents as needed.

Important Note About PDF Protection

This tool is intended for removing passwords from documents you own or have permission to modify. PDF passwords are a basic form of protection and should not be relied upon for highly sensitive documents. Always ensure you have the legal right to remove protection from any document before proceeding.
