Frequently asked questions
Can Inopax crack a PDF password I do not know?
No. Files that need a password to open can only be unlocked with that password (or the owner password). Files that open freely but block printing or copying are unlocked without any password.
Is it safe to enter my password here?
Yes. Decryption runs entirely in your browser: neither the PDF nor the password is ever sent to a server.
Will the unlocked PDF look the same?
Yes. Only the encryption is removed. Text, images, links, bookmarks and form fields stay exactly as they were.
Can I unlock several PDFs at once?
Yes. Add several files; those sharing the same password are unlocked together and you can download them as one ZIP.
Is it legal to unlock a PDF?
Unlocking your own documents, or ones you have permission to use, is fine. Please respect copyright and the wishes of the document owner.
