Guide to Encrypting & Removing PDF Passwords

Information security is a top priority in study and work. The Lock & Unlock PDF File tool by VNDocs helps you secure sensitive documents with a solid password layer.

1. File Locking Feature (Protect PDF)

When sending a quote, contract, or an important essay to someone else over the internet, encrypting the PDF is extremely necessary:

  • Anti-copy & Printing: By setting a password, you can prevent anyone from printing the document or copying text inside without permission.
  • Advanced AES Encryption: The system uses the most advanced encryption standard today, ensuring no password cracking software can open the file without knowing the original password.
  • How to use: Drag and drop the PDF file into the upload box ➔ Enter the password you want to set ➔ Click Lock PDF.
2. Unlocking Feature (Unlock PDF)

This feature is used to permanently remove the password of a PDF file for which you already know the original password, making future openings more convenient:

  • Remove restrictions: Restore previously locked printing, editing, and text copying permissions.
  • No storage: Unlike many other websites that upload your file to their server, VNDocs runs 100% on browser power (Offline Mode). Nothing is uploaded to the internet, 100% protecting your private data.
  • How to use: Drag and drop the locked PDF file ➔ The system will ask for the current password ➔ Enter the password and click Unlock. The downloaded file will be completely password-free.
