3 Simple Ways to Copy a Secured PDF

Method 1: Print to PDF

If you have a secured PDF that restricts printing, you can use the print to PDF feature to create a new PDF file without any restrictions. Simply open the secured PDF, go to the print option, choose ‘Print to PDF’ as the printer, and save the new file in an unrestricted format.

Method 2: Online PDF Unlocker Tools

There are several online tools available that can help you unlock secured PDF files. These tools work by removing the restrictions from the PDF, allowing you to copy the content freely. Simply upload the secured PDF to the online tool, follow the instructions, and download the unlocked PDF.

Method 3: Copy and Paste into a Word Document

If all else fails, you can resort to the old-fashioned copy and paste method. Simply open the secured PDF, select the content you want to copy, right-click, and choose ‘Copy.’ Then, open a Word document, right-click, and choose ‘Paste’ to transfer the content without any restrictions.
