How the PDF Redact & Blackout Works

Draw blackout redaction boxes over sensitive text, account numbers, or personal information on PDF pages. Flattens each page into rasterized pixels to ensure redacted data is completely and irreversibly destroyed.

Usage Example

Black out account numbers or social security numbers before sending documents.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this true redaction or just a visual overlay?

True redaction. The page is flattened to images with the blackout boxes burned in, so underlying text cannot be selected, copied, or recovered.

Are my files uploaded?

No. The entire redaction and PDF reconstruction runs in your web browser.
