Frequently asked questions

Can this open a password-protected PDF?

No. This removes owner restrictions on files that already open freely. It cannot bypass an open password required to view the document.

Is removing restrictions legal?

Removing restrictions from documents you own or are permitted to use is generally fine. Always respect the rights of files you don't own.
