Remove a PDF Password Online
Runs 100% in your browser — your files never leave your device.
This tool is for PDFs you are authorized to open and whose current open password you already know. Enter that password to rebuild an unlocked copy locally. Because pages are rebuilt in the browser, metadata and interactive form fields may not survive the process.
How it works
- 1
Add the protected PDF
Use only a document you are authorized to unlock.
- 2
Enter its current open password
Editing restrictions alone cannot be removed by this workflow.
- 3
Download the unlocked copy
Review the rebuilt file because metadata and forms can be dropped.
