What this tool does

Remove an AES-256, AES-128 or RC4 open password you know, together with the owner restrictions it carried.

Implementation and verified quality

basic · byte-level object rewriter / AES-256, AES-128 and RC4 standard security handlers. Quality qualification is in progress. Pro/Flagship quality has not been established.

Before you export

Preserve mode retains native text, search and vectors; signatures are not retained. Font trimming drops the outlines of glyphs the document does not draw, and grayscale and raster mode are irreversible — raster mode removes searchable text. A forgotten password cannot be recovered, and unknown passwords are never guessed. The writer still parses full documents in a Worker.

Frequently asked questions

What determines the supported size?

Actual device memory, storage and codec support. Tested examples are evidence, not a guarantee for every file. basic

Are my files uploaded?

Nerulio processes selected files on your device and has no file-upload API. Optional engines and models are downloaded from third parties; those requests expose connection information such as your IP address.

Will my work be saved automatically?

No. Images and editing state stay in this tab; media output can use local temporary storage. Changing language preserves your work; reloading, closing the tab, or following a link to another page can clear it.
