I cannot copy the text from a locked PDF file.

It often happens that users encounter a PDF file that is locked or encrypted for security or privacy reasons. This lock prevents the user from copying, pasting, or printing the content of the PDF file, and this can be particularly frustrating in urgent situations where the user needs to access the content. In such cases, it is not enough to simply be able to view the PDF file, as it is essential to be able to interact with the texts and information. Another problem arises when the user needs to open the PDF file on a device that does not have PDF reader software installed. FreeMyPDF solves these problems by lifting restrictions and thus making the content of the PDF file accessible for interactions.
FreeMyPDF is a web solution that provides a fix for locked or password-protected PDF files. If users encounter a restricted PDF file, FreeMyPDF can unlock the restrictions, allowing for copying, pasting, or printing. Users simply need to upload the troublesome file and the tool takes care of the rest. Because it requires no software installation, FreeMyPDF can be used from any device, regardless of whether a PDF reader software is installed or not. Moreover, private data remains secure as uploaded files are not stored. Thus, FreeMyPDF offers a complete solution for all PDF unlocking needs. It's an essential tool for users who need to access and edit restricted PDF content.
