Permanently remove text and image content within a rectangle. This guide explains the practical workflow, what to check in the output and when another tool is a better fit.
When to use this tool
Select the sensitive rectangle and run the dedicated redaction export. Review every occurrence of the information throughout the document.
A practical example
Remove a reference number from a page while leaving surrounding instructions readable.
Check the exported result
Reopen the output, search for the removed term and try selecting or copying content in the redacted area.
Common problems and limits
A white box, crop or text overlay is not secure redaction. Metadata, attachments or repeated identifiers elsewhere require separate review.
Choose the next step
PDF to Text helps inspect searchable text after a redaction pass.
Files, privacy and saving
This workflow uses temporary server processing after your consent. Review the upload notice and avoid processing material you are not authorised to use. Keep your original, review the downloaded result and choose a clear filename before sharing it. The privacy policy explains the processing approach.
