Remove a PDF Password You Know
Drop your PDF, enter the password you already know, and get a clean unlocked copy. Processed instantly — no GPU queue, no email required.
When to use this tool
Use this page when you know the password that was set on a PDF and you just want to remove it — for easier sharing, archiving, or to combine with other files.
If you forgot the password, use our free PDF password check instead. It runs the first recovery pass at no charge and asks for payment only if recovery works.
How it works
- Your file is uploaded, decrypted with the password you entered, and sent back in the response.
- No disk storage — the server never persists the file after returning it.
- Works with PDFs encrypted with 40-bit RC4, 128-bit AES, 256-bit AES (revisions 2–6).
- Output is a normal unencrypted PDF you can open in any viewer without a password.
