Remove a password from a PDF
Tired of entering the same password every time you open a statement? Give TeddyPDF the password once and it will save a copy that opens straight away, with the document and the password staying on your own device.
How to use it
- Pick the password-protected PDF, or drop it onto the box.
- Enter the password it already uses.
- Press Remove password, then download the copy that opens without one.
Only for passwords you already have
TeddyPDF cannot crack, guess or bypass a password. You have to supply the correct one, and if what you enter does not match, the page will tell you. Please use it only on documents you have the right to open.
When an unlocked copy helps
Payslips, bank statements and pension letters often arrive locked. An unlocked copy of your own document is simpler to file away, to combine with other papers using Merge PDF, or to pass on to someone such as a mortgage adviser.
Questions and answers
Where does my password go when I type it?
Nowhere beyond your browser. Before your file is opened, the page locks itself down so that it has no way of sending the password or the document anywhere.
What happens if I enter the wrong password?
The page will tell you that the password does not match, so you can try again. It will not attempt to work the password out for you.
Does TeddyPDF upload my file?
No. Your browser does all the work, on your own device. Before it opens your file, this page shuts off its own ability to send or fetch anything, and your browser holds it to that. Try it: once the page has loaded, turn off your Wi-Fi and the tool still works. How the lock works.
