Security & privacy

Your upload and its result are deleted automatically once the retention window passes.
The password is sent only to run the job, and is cleared from this job's record once it finishes.
Jobs are scoped to your browser session — nobody else can list or download your files.

Tips for best results

Use the password that opens the document, not a permissions password.
The file must not be corrupted — it has to open before it can be unlocked.
A large document takes longer to upload and process.
Page content, order and document details are carried over unchanged.
