Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Does this tool crack or bypass unknown PDF passwords?

No. Modern standard PDF encryption is mathematically secure. Our tool allows legitimate owners and authorized recipients to permanently remove password restrictions by supplying the correct password.

Are my confidential PDF documents uploaded to any server?

No. All decryption, object reconstruction, and validation execute 100% in your local web browser. Your confidential contracts, financial statements, and passwords never leave your computer.

Will unlocking the PDF affect visual quality or fonts?

No. Our engine reconstructs vector streams natively without rasterizing the pages. Text remains 100% selectable, scalable, and crisp.

Can I unlock multiple PDFs in batch?

Yes! You can upload multiple protected PDFs, unlock them individually or simultaneously, and download all decrypted documents in a single ZIP archive.

How does the in-memory verification test work?

Before enabling the download button, the engine reopens the newly generated PDF in memory to verify that zero password is required and all pages render cleanly.

What happens to printing and copying restrictions?

Unlocking eliminates the `/Encrypt` security dictionary entirely, restoring full unrestricted permissions for high-quality printing, content copying, editing, and form filling.

What is the Decryption Audit Report?

It is a downloadable text file detailing the removal of encryption dictionaries, verification UUID, page counts, and timestamp for your security audit records.

Does the tool work on mobile devices and tablets?

Yes. The interface is 100% responsive and touch-optimized for iOS Safari, Android Chrome, and all modern mobile and desktop browsers.

Are digital signatures preserved after unlocking?

Removing encryption alters the internal byte offsets of the PDF, which invalidates cryptographic signature seals, though visual signature appearances remain intact.

Is there any fee or watermark added to my document?

No. IMGFixy Unlock PDF is 100% free with unlimited document processing and zero watermarks.
