About this tool
Open a password-protected PDF with its current password, then re-save a regular PDF that no longer requires an open password. Processing happens locally in your browser and the password is never uploaded.
Frequently asked questions
Can this recover a forgotten password?
No. You must know the current open password. The tool only removes the password after the PDF has been opened successfully.
Is my password uploaded?
No. The password is used locally in your browser to open and re-save the PDF.
Will the unlocked PDF keep its pages and text?
Yes. The document is re-saved as a PDF, preserving pages and selectable text while removing the open-password requirement.
