Good to know
What it does, and what it doesn't.
01
It uploads
This runs on a server, so the file is uploaded to do it. It needs a sign-in and Cloud Pro; the result lands in your FyDrive.
02
Keep the password
If you lose the open password, nobody can open the file — FyPDFs can't recover it.

Questions
Asked and answered.
Which algorithm?
AES-256 unless someone you send it to has very old software; RC4-128 is there for that.
Is it free?
No — this one runs on a server, so it's part of Cloud Pro (100 cloud runs a month, files up to 100 MB). The 20 browser operations are free.
Is my file uploaded?
Yes — to do the work on a server, after you sign in. The result is saved to your FyDrive, where you can delete it.
