How To Unlock PDF Files

Certain PDF files (like bank statements, credit card bills and phone bills) are not only password protected, but also locked to prevent any changes.

You may have the password to open the file, but you can't modify the PDF or open it in an editor. To unlock these PDF files, just go to www.pdfunlock.com and upload the file.

If it is password protected, the website will ask you for the password to open the file. Then, all you have to do is click 'unlock'- and you'll be able to download an unlocked version (without security) of the same file.

Apart from the removal of the inbuilt security, the file is untouched.
