Hi there,
 
Is there a way to remove passwords on multiple PDF documents? Can I use batch processing to achieve this? If so, how? PS:They all have the same password. Thanks in advance!

You can batch process files to remove security by creating a new sequence and setting the Security Method to None. The problem is that you'll have to add a password to each file as it opens to eliminate the security.
