PW Protected IRS pdf's Removal?

Trying to combine pdf's into one Master pdf......however now see IRS's pdfs are PW protected.

Any way to have their PW removed or just have to leave as is........I assume the latter.

Welcome to 2022!

What's an IRS pdf with a password?

Do you mean government copies of tax returns generated from the software?

Good Q sjrcpa?  No, it's just retrieving IRS Tax account transcripts from E-services for a client.

I just print them to pdf. 

Never realized there was a password there.

I can download the transcripts as pdf and can save them under a different file name, just can't combine with another pdf file.  Using Adobe Acrobat XI Standard.

I just get this message as an additional log file when saving and printing:

%%[ ProductName: Distiller ]%%
This PostScript file was created from an encrypted PDF file.
Redistilling encrypted PDF is not permitted.
%%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%%
