Frequently asked questions

How do I remove a password from a PDF?
Open the PDF, enter the password you already know, and DailyDone saves an unlocked copy with the password removed.
Do I need to know the password to unlock a PDF?
Yes. This removes a password you own from your own document. It does not break or bypass protection on a file you cannot open.
Is it safe to unlock a PDF here?
The file is processed over a secure connection and deleted right after. Your password is never stored.
