[NEW TOOL] PDF password remover
What tool do you want? A password remover for PDF docs.
Describe the solution you'd like Simply a form with a browse button to upload a password-locked PDF doc, a text field to input the password, and a Submit button. After submission, present a link with the passwordless PDF.
Is their example of this tool in the wild? Alternative to these: https://www.ilovepdf.com/unlock_pdf https://smallpdf.com/unlock-pdf https://tools.pdf24.org/en/unlock-pdf
Possible tool for implementation: https://sourceforge.net/projects/qpdf/
Additional context This is not intended to brute-force crack the password. It would be useful to simply remove the known password from PDF files. The need for this is that it-tools can be deployed on premises, thus allowing privacy guarded fiiles to be processed in a safe manner.
