About PDF Password: Protect & Unlock

PDF Password encrypts a PDF with a password, or removes the password from a PDF you can open. When protecting a file you can choose whether printing and copying text are allowed.

When to use it

  • Protect a payslip, tax return or medical record before emailing it.
  • Remove the password from your own bank statements so you don’t have to type it every time.
  • Share a document that can be read but not copied.

Tips

  • The password never leaves your device, and there is no way to recover it, so save it somewhere safe.
  • Unlocking needs the current password; this tool does not crack passwords.
