Viewing .PDF Fields

Question

I am trying to view the fields that are in a .pdf file that I will be using within my C# program.

I read online that in order to view the fields that are in a .pdf file I need to edit the file.

Yesterday I purchased Adobe Acrobat Pro DC and I've tried to edit this document in order to see the fields, but I'm running up against the need to provide a password for this document( which I don't have).

Is there another way of seeing the fields that are a part of a .pdf file without editing it ? I really don't need the ability to edit the file.

Thanks !

So it is a locked PDF file? The only way you can do is unlock it, there are 3 different ways.

1. The easiest one, you will ask for the password from the owner of that file.

2. Glitch. There are many converters on the internet, just convert it all the time until its broke.

3. I dont want to call it hacking, but... There are many ways/softwares to unlock locked files. Not really legal though.
