How PDF redaction works
Open a PDF, scan it with local OCR, review the detected information, and approve only the areas you want to hide.
- Scanned and multi-page PDF support
- Automatic suggestions, custom phrases, and manual areas
- Black, white, REDACTED, and blur appearances
Permanent output, not an overlay
Black, white, and REDACTED masks are applied to rendered page pixels before a new PDF is created. The original text layer, comments, attachments, and metadata are not copied.
Review remains essential
OCR can miss information or suggest false positives, especially on low-quality photos. Check every page before sharing the result.
