FAQs
Common questions
Is this real redaction or just a black box on top?
It's real redaction. Unlike drawing a black rectangle, our tool permanently deletes the underlying text and images inside the area you mark. The removed content cannot be copied, searched, or recovered from the file.
How do I redact something?
Upload your PDF, then simply click and drag across any text, name, image, or region you want to remove. You can mark as many areas across as many pages as you need, then download the cleaned document.
Will the rest of my document stay intact?
Yes. Only the areas you mark are removed. The rest of your document — its text, layout, and formatting — stays exactly as it was.
Is there a file size limit?
You can redact PDF files up to 50 MB in size.
