Thanks Darryl,
You're welcome, Bil.
I found PDKey so easy I didn't "re-boil" ( I like that - not too many
things around get re-boiled.... esp. eggs)
PDFKey effectively does the equivalent of reboiling. Everything it needs is
in the original PDF, which is why it's so quick; it just creates a new PDF
without the owner password.
The docs at hand were Pword protected from any editing. I could print
(as above) but that would have been a task and lead me nowhere.
My mistake. It's usually printing that things are protected against. PDFKey
and similar products remove all restrictions.
But, to repeat my point from before, because it's important, removing a user
password is a different kettle of fish.
Instead (with copyright owner permission!!) I got to work with PDF Key (
I believe there is a Windows version)
Yes, quite so. There is. And now that you point this out, I realise I have
tried it, but only the trial version.
