Unlock PDF
Remove password protection from a PDF when you know its current password.
Forgot your password?
This tool can’t recover or bypass a forgotten PDF password. Check your password manager or records, ask the document’s creator or administrator, or look for the original unprotected PDF or a backup. If you have an authorized owner password, you can enter it above.
Your PDF and password are processed locally in your browser and aren’t uploaded. Password-protected PDFs restrict access in compatible readers; they are not DRM.
Maximum input and output size: 200.0 MiB. Large PDFs need extra memory on your device. Unlocking requires a password you’re authorized to use.
