Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about PDF protection and our service.
What types of protection can I add to my PDFs?
You can add user passwords (required to open the PDF), owner passwords (restrictions on printing, copying, or editing), and various permission settings to control how others can interact with your document.
How strong is the PDF encryption?
We use industry-standard AES encryption with 128-bit or 256-bit keys, providing bank-level security that protects your documents from unauthorized access.
Can I remove protection from PDFs I created?
Yes, if you have the owner password or created the protected PDF yourself, you can remove or modify the protection settings as needed.
Is it safe to protect PDFs online?
Yes, our PDF protector uses bank-level SSL encryption and all files are automatically deleted from our servers after processing. We never store your files or share them with third parties.
What if I forget my PDF password?
Unfortunately, PDF passwords cannot be recovered if forgotten. We recommend keeping your passwords in a secure location. Always use strong, memorable passwords.
Can I protect multiple PDFs at once?
Currently, our tool processes one PDF at a time to ensure maximum security and optimal protection. You can protect multiple files by processing them sequentially.
