Frequently Asked Questions

How does PDF locking work?

Your PDF is encrypted with the password you provide using industry-standard AES-256 encryption. Anyone who tries to open the PDF will need to enter the password.

Can I remove the password later?

Yes, use our PDF Unlock tool with your password to remove the protection.

Is my PDF uploaded to a server?

No. The entire encryption process happens in your browser using JavaScript. Your PDF and password never leave your device.

What encryption is used?

We use AES-256 bit encryption, the same standard used by banks and governments.

Does it work with all PDFs?

Yes, including PDFs with images, forms, and multiple pages. Already-encrypted PDFs will need to be unlocked first.
