FAQ
Specifics for this converter
What does unlock do?
Removes password protection. By default it preserves the original text layer; if that fails, you can switch to an image-based (raster) unlock.
Do I need the password?
Yes. You must know the correct password to unlock protected PDFs.
Will text remain selectable?
Yes when “Preserve text layer” is enabled. If you disable it (raster unlock), pages become images and text is not selectable or searchable.
Is it processed locally?
Yes, unlocking runs entirely in your browser via WASM.
