remove DRM

remove DRM

[Rich Cook]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 813 bytes --]

I have a PDF with DRM (purchased) so I can only read it in Adobe Digital 
Editions. I'd like to remove the DRM so I can read it in a useful PDF 
reader (Xodo, to be exact).

I searched but am not finding a way to do this with Pandoc other than (as 
yet untried) convert it to epub then back to DRM-free PDF.

Am I overlooking something or has someone tried this already? Any other 
tips?

Thanks,
Rich

Hi,

I suspect you will not be able to remove the drm with pandoc, you will 
need to google some other solution.

Cheers,

Sukil

 Removing the DRM would be breaking the law in most countries - probably
not something you want to be advertising your desire to do on a public
mailing list.

No it wouldn't. Since I paid for the product. Which is public domain because it is a government publication. Sent via the Samsung Galaxy S22 5G, an AT&T 5G smartphone

Thank you for the confirmation. That is what I suspected but am a Pandoc expert so I wasn't sure. Appreciate it. RichSent via the Samsung Galaxy S22 5G, an AT&T 5G smartphone

For what it's worth - that's not actually relevant in many places.  The 
law is against removing the DRM, not against making it easy to pirate, 
or sharing it, etc.  Ownership status doesn't matter.

Of course: I am not a laywer, double-check your relevant statues, 
excptions, case law, etc.
