[Athen] Locked PDF

[Andrea L. Dietrich]

It’s not exactly a free trial. Rather, you get a limited number of unlocks per day, but it’s free every day. Just FYI. I’m interested to see your alternative programs, though!

Hi Bryon et al

Both Neil and Andi recommended PDF Unlocker. It works well but costs a fee after the free trial. I dug around for an open source pdf password unlock program and found this:

Try it out and see if it works. Save some $$

Hi all,

I am trying to edit a PDF file that asking for a password.. It won't let me open in Kurzweil.

Does anybody have tool they use to bypass the password request?

Thanks.
