Cracking pdf passwords

I have been trying to open a couple of password protected pdf files. Does anybody know how I can open them? They are really important. Else, I will need to shell out $150 …which of course, I don’t want to.

So, please please please, if you are reading this post and know how to crack pdf passwords, please leave me a comment!! I will really appreciate your help 🙂

    I remember running to this problem last year. I used another PDF viewer intead of Acrobat and it bypass the password. download GSVIEW and Ghostgum.

    For $99 you can remove the “owner” and “user” passwords – it does a brute force attack. Kinda sucks to shell out that much, but if it’s that important, then it’s probably worth $99.

    With VeryPDF listed above, you have to know the “user” and/or “owner” passwords, once you know the passwords it can remove them. Not exactly the result most of us are after!
