Type the current PDF password so the tool can open and unlock the file.
Click Unlock. Download the unprotected PDF when processing finishes. Each file stays available for up to 5 downloads.
Remove a password you already know so the PDF opens in readers, printers, and upload forms that reject locked files.
Unlocked PDFs are easier to merge, split, compress, or annotate in other tools.
