OCR PDF text search

Scans every page (including scanned/image-only pages with no selectable text) so you can search for a word or phrase.

PDF to Word

Extracts the real text where the PDF has it, and runs OCR automatically on scanned/image-only pages. Works best for simple, single-column documents — complex layouts, tables, and multi-column text won't be preserved exactly.

PDF to PowerPoint

Each page becomes one slide, rendered as a full-page image — layout, fonts, and graphics come out exactly as they look in the PDF. Runs entirely in your browser.

PDF to Excel

Reconstructs rows and columns from the PDF’s own text spacing, and runs OCR automatically on scanned/image-only pages. Works best for simple, clearly-aligned tables — free-form text near a table may get split oddly.

PDF to JPG

Each page becomes a .jpg image. Runs entirely in your browser — nothing is uploaded. Multiple pages are zipped together for download.

HTML to PDF

PDF to HTML

Produces one self-contained .html file — an image of each page with an invisible text layer on top, so it looks exactly like the PDF but the text stays selectable, searchable (Ctrl/Cmd+F), and copyable. Runs entirely in your browser.

How to unlock a password-protected PDF online

  1. Choose the locked PDF.
  2. Enter its password (leave blank if it only has owner/permission restrictions and no open password).
  3. Click Unlock PDF.
  4. Download the unlocked copy — opens without a password, no restrictions.

Why use VitePDF

  • Real decryption, not a metadata trick — the file genuinely opens without a password afterward.
  • Also removes owner-only restrictions (print/copy/edit locks) that don't require a password to view.
  • No account, no watermark.

Frequently asked questions

Can this crack a PDF password I don't know?

No — you need to already know the password. This tool removes protection from a PDF you have legitimate access to; it isn't a password-recovery or cracking tool.

What if the PDF doesn't ask for a password when I open it, but I still can't print or copy from it?

That's an owner-only restriction — leave the password field blank and click Unlock; those restrictions can be removed without a password since the content is already viewable.

Is my file safe when using this tool?

Your file and password are uploaded to a conversion server to process it, the same way any online PDF unlock tool with real decryption works, and aren't retained after conversion.
