pdf-unlock

pdf_unlock.py removes security features from pdfs, to allow unrestricted printing and copying of context.

Installation

Ghostscript is required. Windows users will have to add Ghostscript directory to the PATH environment variable manually, eg:

C:\Program Files\gs\gs9.21\bin

Usage

Search for pdfs inside 'pdf_folder', then create new unlocked versions of the pdfs with the the suffix '-unlocked.pdf':

> python pdf_unlock.py pdf_folder

Search for pdfs inside 'pdf_folder', then unlock the pdfs and overwrite the original versions.

> python pdf_unlock.py pdf_folder -o

Search recursively for pdfs inside 'pdf_folder' and all subfolders, then unlock the pdfs and overwrite the original versions.

> python pdf_unlock.py pdf_folder -o -r
