PDF Redact & Blackout
Permanently black out sensitive text and graphics from PDF pages using true pixel-level flattening. Fast, free, and fully client-side.
How the PDF Redact & Blackout Works
Draw redaction boxes over sensitive text, account numbers, or personal info on PDF pages. We flatten each page into rasterized pixels so the redacted data is completely and irreversibly destroyed.
Usage Example
Black out account numbers or social security numbers before you send documents.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this true redaction or just a visual overlay?
It's true redaction. The page gets flattened into images with the blackout boxes burned right in, so the underlying text can't be selected, copied, or recovered.
Are my files uploaded?
No. The whole redaction process and PDF reconstruction happens in your web browser.
