How it works

Unlock in three steps

  1. Choose your PDF

    Plooi checks whether it has a password, or only restrictions.

  2. Type the password

    The password you know. Plooi doesn’t guess and doesn’t crack.

  3. Download the copy

    A PDF without a password and without restrictions. Your original stays as it was.

Good to know

  1. Can Plooi crack a forgotten password?

    No, and we deliberately don’t. You need the password. If you can’t remember it, ask whoever made the PDF.

  2. What if the PDF only says ‘no printing’?

    Some PDFs open without a password but forbid printing or copying. If it’s your own document, Plooi removes those restrictions without a password.

  3. Does my password go anywhere?

    No. Everything happens in your browser, on your own device.

Spotted a mistake?

A few words are enough. We will check and fix it.
