Frequently asked questions

Can this crack or guess a password I don't know?

No — this only removes a password you already have. It's not a password-cracking tool.

Is the password I type sent anywhere?

No — it's used locally, in your browser tab, to open and re-save the PDF without encryption.

Why would I need to remove a password?

Common cases: sharing a document with someone who doesn't need the same protection, or removing a password after you no longer need it.
