Portable Document Format (PDF) files are the world’s most popular format for storing and sharing information data. The file format is used to present documents in a manner independent of application software, hardware, and operating systems.
Most of the PDF files for business and other confidential services may be protected with a password to secure the content from misuse or for the security of data.
Reading a secure PDF file without any password is not an easy task and the Apps or methods available use the Trial and Error method to crack the passcode. The apps or websites generally use various combinations of passwords and try to unlock the PDF (if possible). This may take hours to a few days.
One such app that claims to do the work is PDF Utility. There are many other websites and apps which also claim the same.

With this guide, you can only remove password protection from the file. So, you need to know the password to make the file secure.
