When coming across Adobe PDF files, many people would complain that they cannot read, copy, edit, or print them sometimes. This is mainly because the adobe PDF files are protected with password and they don’t know or forget them. So what is PDF Password? And how can I create and crack PDF password?
Two types of PDF Password
Actually PDF Password could be classified into two types:
Owner password and
User Password. PDF files with owner password allow you open and view the PDF file. But copy and print functions is disabled, which means, you cannot copy text to clipboard, make any modification, nor export the content to papers. User password is set to prevent you from viewing PDF files. As owner password is the most common protection for PDF files, so, in the article, I will put emphasis on owner password.
Why we need PDF Password?
As an EBook Publisher, you sell your EBooks to readers for viewing. You only want to allow them to view the EBook but make the copy and print function disabled. In this case, you need to set the user password for the payment, and set the owner password to protect the copyright.
In another situation, you create a form and hand it out to others, only expecting them to fill in the blank and sign in signature field. You don’t expect them to change layout of the form. Then you can set corresponding permission to restrict their access.
How to Create PDF Password?
Most of time, PDF Password is added in PDF Editor. If you have Adobe Acrobat, you could easily add PDF Password. Click
Secure button and select
encrypt with password. In pop-up window of
Password Security- Settings, you can set the open password and owner password. Besides of Adobe Acrobat, you can use other third- party software to create owner password too. And there are a great many online; you can look them up in Google.
Absolutely, Adobe Acrobat allows you
remove PDF Password if you know the password you have ever set. However, if we forget the PDF password, Adobe Acrobat would be useless. Besides, most of us don’t have Adobe Acrobat considering its price. In these cases, we need to
crack the password with specific applications. Here I recommend
