Decrypt pdf files Thread poster: linadia

|---|
Hello,
I have encrypted a folder containing pdf files. When I decrypted the content of the folder, some of the files remained encrypted and I'm not able to open them any more. I get the following error when I try to open them in Adobe Acrobat 6.0: "There was an error opening this document. Access denied.
One more thing, the encrypted files' names appears in green.
Thanks,
Nadia

If you'd send these files to me, I can try to decrypt them. I can't guarantee success, but I can try.

And yes, PDF Password remover is a must in our profession- every second day we receive such encrypted files, only permission for which is to view them on screen. And sure, the client himself never has a clue of the password, it was lost years ago together with the employee who left the Company...

Hi Nadia,
There has been numerous threads about this in the past.
I tried many applications that were recommended here. Most of them are trial-ware with severe limitations.
But there is one freeware that works flawlessly: Ghostscript + GSview frontend! You should install both for GUI handling.

| Nadia, please specify! | Oct 4, 2007 |
This all depends on two factors:
- What OS is Nadia running? XP, Vista, older Windows, maybe even Mac?
- How did Nadia encrypt the folder in the first place? Straight in Explorer, or with a third party application?!
