Questions
Can you unlock a PDF if I don't know the password?
No. For files that need a password to open, you must type the correct password. This tool is for your own documents, like bank statements, e-Aadhaar, e-PAN, Form 16 and salary slips.
What is the password for e-Aadhaar?
The first four letters of your name in capital letters followed by your year of birth, for example RAHU1998.
My PDF opens without a password but I can't print or copy.
That PDF has restrictions only. Select it here and leave the password blank; the restrictions are removed.
Is it safe?
Yes. The PDF and password stay on your device and are never uploaded.
