Remove a Password from a PDF

Strip the password from a PDF you are allowed to open so it stops prompting every time. Enter the current password if needed, and download an unlocked copy — all in your browser, nothing uploaded.

Unlock PDFs You Own

Re-entering a password every time you open a frequently-used PDF is tedious — a statement, a payslip, a report you reference daily. If you know the password, this tool opens the file and rebuilds an unlocked copy with the protection removed, so it opens instantly from then on. It works on permission-locked files too, where a password restricts editing but not opening.

This is for documents you have the right to access. You need to be able to open the file (with its password if it has one); the tool cannot recover or bypass a password you do not have — and that is exactly what keeps everyone's protected documents safe.

Processed Locally

The PDF is opened and rebuilt entirely in your browser. The file and its password are never transmitted to any server.
