So you’re looking to remove PDF password on your Mac, huh? There’s a bunch of sketchy programs out there that claim they can strip PDF passwords, but they might just mess up your file or, worse, mess with your privacy. Stick to reliable apps like Adobe Acrobat or Preview, which come with your Mac. They’re your best bet!

If you’re using third-party tools to remove PDF password on Mac, make sure they’re compatible with the version of macOS you’re running. You don’t want to end up with a program that crashes or doesn’t work at all because it’s outdated or not suited for your system.
