Unlock PDF Password Offline in Your Browser

Drop a password-protected PDF, enter the password, and download an unlocked copy — all on your device. Your PDF and your password never leave the browser, which is the safest way to handle bank statements or legal docs you can't share with a cloud tool.

Every claim on this page is auditable in 30 seconds:

  1. Open browser DevTools (F12 or Cmd+Opt+I).
  2. Switch to the Network tab and tick Preserve log.
  3. Run the tool with your file.
  4. You'll see requests for the page, library code, and ad pixels — never for your PDF.

Even better: load the page, then turn off Wi-Fi. The tool still works, because there's nowhere for the file to go.

FAQ

Does this crack passwords?

No. You must know the password. This tool removes the protection from a PDF you can already open.

Why does the file size change?

Unlocking goes through a re-render step (the underlying library can decrypt PDFs but not write encrypted PDFs back out). Vector text becomes raster. If quality matters, run it once and keep the unlocked copy.
