How can I remove a password on a PDF?

Of course, I work with a lot of pdf files.  I try to combine several of them in a single pdf.  Unfortunately, I get a message saying that a file is password protected.

Can I remove the password when I have no idea who would add a?

Thank you!

Hi Alison,.

Apparently, the password was added by the author of the PDF file to prevent such activity, you are trying. Appropriate and ethical to do thing would be to contact the author of the document and asked the password or an unprotected version.
