Question 61

Is it legal to unlock a PDF online?

Question 62

Can I unlock a PDF without knowing the password?

If the PDF has only an owner password (editing/printing restrictions), the unlock PDF tool can remove those restrictions without a password. However, a file that requires a password to open must have that password entered.

Accepted Answer

Once unlocked, you can freely edit the PDF, split it into pages, compress it, or convert it to Excel — any PDFCraftor tool will work on the unrestricted file.
