I forgot my password to be able to sign my PDF documents. Can I stop the password protection on there? Can I change that password?

Fill and sign

Hello Phill!

I hope you are doing well.

If you are the owner of the PDF file, i.e., you created it. You can change the PDF password from Tools > Protect a PDF > Encrypt with Password or from Document Properties > Security.

However, if you have not created the PDF file, then you won't be able to make changes, and you need to contact the author/owner of the PDF. For more details, please see this article: https://adobe.ly/3DWtqMD

For the password of the Digital Signature, if you forgot it, you can add/create a new Signature and use it. For more information, see this article: https://adobe.ly/4cetIv0

I hope this helps.

Thanks,

Anand Sri.
