Frequently asked questions
Can it crack a password I do not know?
No. This tool decrypts files with a password you already have. It does not guess or brute-force passwords.
What about PDFs with only owner restrictions?
If the file opens without a password but blocks printing or copying, leave the password blank; the restrictions are removed.
Is the content changed?
No. Only the encryption is removed; pages, text and images are untouched.
