Details

How this should help in practice

These sections explain the job in plain language and set expectations for what the tool should do well.

Why the export is rebuilt

The browser-first unlock path rebuilds the document locally after opening it with the correct password. That keeps the job on-device and avoids a backend service.

The tradeoff is that the unlocked copy may flatten forms, searchable text, or annotations. That should stay visible in the interface.
