Frequently Asked Questions

Can I unlock a PDF without the password?

No — you must know the correct password. This tool decrypts the PDF using the password you provide. It cannot crack or bypass unknown passwords.

Is my PDF sent to a server?

No — everything happens locally in your browser. Your PDF and password are never transmitted to any server.

What if I get an error after entering the password?

Double-check that you're entering the correct password. Some PDFs use owner-level restrictions instead of user passwords; try leaving the password blank for those.
