remove-pdf-password

A shellscript to decrypt all pdf files sharing the same password in a folder. Some lecturer tend to encrypt their slides. That's why I made this script to not let me annoy.

Requirements

• bash
• qpdf

Install and usage

Arch Linux

pacman -S qpdf

Debian

apt-get install qpdf

Download the pdf files to a folder using wget, curl or whatever you like and follow this usage:

cd ~/PDF/folder
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gsilvan/remove-pdf-password/master/freepdf
chmod +x freepdf
./freepdf "your password"
