About This Tool

Remove password protection from encrypted PDF files and create unlocked copies you can freely edit, print, and share. Our free PDF decryption tool works with password-protected documents created by Adobe Acrobat, Microsoft Word, Mac Preview, and all standard PDF applications.

Unlock PDF files that require a password to open or have restricted permissions for printing and copying. Simply enter the correct password and download an unprotected version. Essential for accessing old documents when you've forgotten the owner password, or removing unnecessary security from files you own.

All PDF decryption happens locally in your web browser using secure JavaScript cryptography. Your password-protected files and credentials never leave your computer. Unlike online PDF unlocker services that upload your sensitive documents to remote servers, PDF Pony processes everything client-side for maximum privacy.

Compatible with PDF encryption standards including 40-bit RC4, 128-bit RC4, and 128-bit AES used by Adobe Acrobat and other PDF creators. Works with scanned documents, fillable forms, and multi-page PDF files. The unlocked PDF maintains all original content, bookmarks, annotations, and formatting.
