FAQ

Common Questions

Frequently asked questions regarding PDF security levels, open passwords, legal ownership, and sandbox safety.

What is the difference between a User Password and an Owner Password?
A User Password (or open password) prevents users from opening the file at all. An Owner Password (or permissions password) restricts specific features like printing, editing, or copying text while letting you view it.
Can this tool unlock a PDF if I don't know the Open Password?
If the PDF requires a User Open Password to be read, you must enter it so the tool can decrypt the content streams. It cannot brute-force or guess unknown open passwords.
Does unlocking a PDF affect the layout or quality?
No. The tool works at the binary stream level to modify permission catalog entries. The original pages, images, fonts, and vector paths are preserved exactly as they are.
Can I run this tool on confidential financial or legal files?
Yes. Because all parsing and security-flag clearing are executed locally in your browser memory, your sensitive data is never transmitted across the network, making it safe for corporate use.
Are passwords or files logged on your server?
No. The unlocking algorithm is written entirely in client-side JavaScript. No documents, passwords, or hashes are uploaded, saved, or tracked.
