You can also feed these pdf's through ghostscript to create a new unprotected PDF also if you want to preserve the forms and still remove the extra pages.
I have done this with a host of forms over the years.
But I agree an advanced "skip the security" option would be good here.

I have a 6 page PDF file; 2 pages with a form to fill out and 4 explanation pages. To reduce file size I want to remove the explanation pages and only keep the pages with the form.
When using PDF4QT PageMaster 1.3.7 (AppImage) to open the PDF file, I get an error message:
Document security doesn't permit to organize pages.
Please add an option to ignore this PDF "security" settings.
My workaround is to fill the PDF form, and then print to a new pdf that does not have the "security" flags so I can remove the pages.

@cweiske, I have added new command-line option --no-drm to disable DRM.
Thank you!
