I have a few hundred PDFs that I secured for printing only, and I used the same password on all of them. Now I need to remove all security from all of them.

I though I would use the Batch Processing feature to create a new sequence specifying No Security. The sequence runs, returns no errors, but it never asks for the original password, and it does not remove the security.

Do I have to remove security manually and individually file-by-file, or is there something I'm overlooking?
