About Unlock PDF
Unlock PDF removes a document’s password and restrictions in one pass. It handles both cases: PDFs that demand a password to open, and PDFs that open freely but block copying, printing or editing. The result is a clean, unencrypted file that behaves like any normal PDF.
When a file needs its open password, you enter it and the tool verifies it right in your browser before anything is processed — with instant feedback if the password is wrong. Restriction-only files can be unlocked with the password field left empty.
One rule applies: only unlock documents you own or are authorized to modify. This tool removes protections you legitimately hold the key to; it does not crack unknown passwords.
How to use Unlock PDF
- Drag and drop the locked PDF.
- If the file needs a password to open, enter it — it is verified in your browser before processing; leave the field empty for restriction-only files.
- Click “Unlock PDF”.
- Download the unlocked file — the password and all copy, print and edit restrictions are gone.
