Über Unlock PDF
Unlock PDF is for people who know the password. Choose the locked file, type the password and save a copy that opens without being asked for it, which saves typing it every time you open a statement, form or report.
It cannot guess, recover or get around a password, and it should only be used on files that belong to you or that you have permission to open. If the password is wrong nothing is produced, and your original file is never changed.

Häufige Fragen
Can it remove a password I have forgotten?
No. It only works when you type the right password. It does not guess or recover passwords.
Is my original file changed?
No. A new copy is made for you to download. The original stays exactly as it was.
Why does it say the file is not locked?
The PDF has no password protection, so there is nothing to remove. You can use it with the other PDF tools as it is.
Can I use it on any PDF I find?
Only on files you own or are allowed to open. Opening a document that was locked by someone else without permission may be against the rules or the law.
