FAQs about unlocking PDF with password

If your PDF file is secured with a weak password, you can often use an online PDF unlocker to access it without needing the password. However, if the file is encrypted with a strong password, you won’t be able to unlock the PDF without knowing the correct password.


If you’ve forgotten the password for a locked PDF file, here are some strategies to help you regain access:

  1. Contact the PDF Owner: If the locked PDF was created by someone else, reach out to the owner. They may have shared the password with you before, so check your email or other communication channels for this information.
  2. Try Common Passwords: Many people use a few familiar passwords across multiple accounts. Attempt to unlock the PDF by using these commonly used passwords.

If your PDF file is locked from printing, upload the PDF file to Unlock PDF on HiPDF, click Unlock button to remove the password protection. Then download the unlocked PDF to your device to start printing.

HiPDF can also unlock PDF with editing password. To do that, upload the PDF with editing encryption online, click Unlock to remove the password. Then you can download the PDF to start editing.
