Hi All,
I am very new to this. I have been poking around using Hashcat trying crack a PDF file (m 10500) password. I know the following about it:
The user says that they use the following pattern:
[Special Character]Regular English Word[Special Character]A Different English Word[Special Character]
Here is my current command line:
hashcat.exe -S -w 3 -m 10500 words_alpha.txt -r onerule.txt -o cracked.txt
What are some better approaches to getting this done?
I would love your input and ideas!
Thanks!
Paul.

[Special Character]Regular English Word[Special Character]A Different English Word[Special Character]
- Each special character is blank, or a special character, typically a shifted number or such, brackers, punctuation. No high order characters.
- Regular English words of something you might look up and see in a typical room. Typically, lower case but may have an initial cap.
Here is my current command line:
