Redact PDF - Remove Sensitive Text
Find and redact sensitive text in PDF with search, regex, and batch redaction plus preview. Private - included with Pro.
Über dieses Tool
Find and Redact locates sensitive text in your PDF - by search or regex - and permanently blackens it out. Preview every match before redacting, and process multiple terms in one go.
Unlike covering text with a box, redaction removes the underlying content so it cannot be recovered.
Everything runs locally in your browser, keeping the document private. This is a Pro tool - unlock it with a subscription.
