[Solved] How can I remove PDF password?

Forum Computer Peripherals : General Discussion [Solved] How can I remove PDF password?

Hi guys, I'm new here!

Just wanna say hello and see if anyone can do me a favor.

Recently I've got a really annoying problem at work.

Some of my PDFs can not be copyed, edited or printed.

I know that's because they're secured but how can I remove the password?

Any idea to work out the problem?

You ask the person who created them to send you an unencrypted copy.

Otherwise, we cannot help with hacking in these forums. . .

Many pdf files has password protection which were created and encrypted by a former department manager.So, if you don't have the user password, you need to use some pdf cracker to crack the pdf, but you must be legal to do this.
I would like to share you a article about How to remove PDF password and restriction,which has made the whole process easy.
It saved me lots of time on this. I just shared the guide with you.
Hope it can do you a bit favor.

better you ask the real owner of the PDF, there is no other way as how to open the software, you need to ask the old manager to get you the passwords, check the contract of old manager, he will be bounded to return everything related to office, these passwords are also covered in that office agreement!
