Questions

Are my files uploaded anywhere?

No. Your files are processed on your device. We never upload them.

Is it free?

Yes. There's no sign-up, no watermark, and no daily limit.

Can it unlock a PDF if I don't know the password?

No. You need the password to open the PDF. If the PDF opens without one but blocks printing or copying, it removes those limits without a password.

Which passwords work?

The password you use to open the PDF, or its owner password. Files protected with AES-256, AES-128, or RC4 all work.
