Remove encryption from a PDF

POST https://api.pdfrest.com/decrypted-pdf

This request demonstrates how to decrypt a password-protected PDF by removing the password and requires that the current password be provided.

The current_open_password form-data body parameter must be active and set to the correct password.

Documents with a permissions password applied will require that the current_permissions_password  parameter is active and set to the permissions password. Otherwise, the document will forbid any changes to encryption.
