Cracking the pdf

Do you have a locked pdf?
Cannot extract the text?
Cannot print it?
Cannot modify it?
Well, here is a simple solution...

Bang your head over the wall ... :D Just kidding!
Follow these simple steps:

Download and install the latest version of GhostScript
Download and install the latest version of GSView


Thats it!
Open the "locked" pdf in GSView. You can now convert your original file into various types. One of the extension is "PDFWriter". You basically convert your original document(with all the security) into a basic converted document(without the protection).


Hurray, now you can do whatever u want to do with this documnt. Use your fav "free" program to convert the pdf to word, ppt, etc. Or you can mark, copy, extract the text or even print it, if it was disabled.

njoy and thank postscript... and ofcourse me for pointing you there!
