To remove password protection from PDF document you can use Google Chrome but, make sure that the file must not have printing restrictions. If the PDF file is print restricted then this method will get fail.

Therefore, to overcome such type of situations you can use SysTools PDF Unlocker Software. With this tool you can remove password protection from PDF file even if the file is print restricted.

The right thing is to phone your accountant for the password. Why try to crack the password when the accountant is working for you?

In other unfortunate news:

1)  The PDf may not work anyhow  (but you can try)

2)  When it does work, The PDF transfer has historically transferred so little information into the TTX software as to be practically useless.  Names, SSNs and AGI is about it...if you thought it might do more extensive SE business info, rental info, amortization schedules...etc..that kind of detail has always been absent. Of course, maybe that will change in the future, but so far, the transfer is so minimal as to be a "Why Bother".

The accountant should have told you what the password was when he sent it to you ... my professional program defaults to the first 4 letters of your last name and the last 5 of the primary taxpayers SS# and the email I send with the PDF file attached tells you this in the body.
