How to Unlock a Password Protected PDF File
- 1). Download a PDF unlocking application and install it onto your laptop or desktop, or locate an online PDF unlocking service. Many freeware applications and free online services are available online, including PDF Unlocker, Ensode's PDF Crack and Unlock-PDF.com.
- 2). Add your file to the PDF restriction removal application or service by clicking the "Browse" or "Upload PDF" button. Select your protected PDF file, then click "Open."
- 3). Click the "Convert" or "Unlock" button. The application or service will automatically unlock the PDF file and then will either save the unprotected version to the same folder the protected version is located or will prompt you to save the file. If prompted, choose a save location in the prompt box, then select "Save."
- 4). Double-click the new PDF file to open it with the PDF software installed on your computer. Click "File," then "Print" and select the printer you want to print with from the list. Check the settings for paper orientation and size to ensure that it matches your paper, then click "Print."
