Your data never leaves your computer.

How to use this tool

Upload the locked PDF, enter the correct user or owner password, and download the unlocked copy. You must already know the password—this tool cannot recover forgotten passwords.

Worked example

Example: unlock a password-protected bank statement you received so you can merge it with other PDFs or compress it for email.

How it works

Upload a password-protected PDF and enter the password you already know. The tool decrypts the file in your browser (AES-256 or RC4) and saves an unlocked copy you can download. Files and passwords are not uploaded to a server. This does not crack unknown passwords.
