About PDF Password Tool
This tool lets you add or remove password protection from PDF files directly in your browser — no upload, no account required.
Remove Password
Switch to Remove Password mode, drop your PDF, enter the current password, and click the button. The result is a standard PDF you can open without any credentials.
Add Password
Switch to Add Password mode, load any PDF, type a password, and download the protected file. The file is encrypted with AES-256, which is supported by all modern PDF readers.
Supported Files
- Any PDF version that supports standard encryption
- Password-protected PDFs where you know the user or owner password
- Unencrypted PDFs (for adding a password)
Tips
- If a PDF opens without a password but has printing or editing restrictions, it may still have an owner password. Enter the owner password in the unlock step to remove those restrictions.
- The output file is generated entirely in your browser — nothing is sent to any server.
