Frequently asked

Can I unlock a PDF I don't have the password for?

No. Unlock requires you to enter the password. Uvelia doesn't crack or brute-force passwords — that would be illegal and unethical.

Are both owner and user passwords removed?

Yes. Once you provide the password, all protection is stripped from the output.
