Perguntas frequentes
How strong is the encryption?
It uses AES-256, the modern standard supported by current PDF readers.
Can the password be recovered if I forget it?
No. There's no backdoor — if you lose the password, the PDF can't be opened. Store it safely.
Is my PDF uploaded?
No. Encryption happens in your browser; the file and password never leave your device. The only download is the one-time engine (~1.3 MB).
