About Unlock PDF
Password locks and editing restrictions on PDF documents can prevent you from printing, copying text, or making necessary updates to your own files.
The Unlock PDF tool decrypts PDF streams and strips restriction permissions, saving a clean, unrestricted version of your document.
Because decryption happens locally inside your browser using client-side WebAssembly, your document passwords and contents remain strictly private.
Questions & Answers
Can I remove print and copy restrictions from a PDF?
Yes! The tool strips owner restrictions so you can copy text and print freely.
Do I need to enter a password if I know it?
If the PDF requires a password to open, enter it in the password box to remove the encryption.
Is my password or file transmitted online?
No. Decryption algorithms run 100% locally inside your web browser.
