Redact PDF
Mark areas or search text; redacted pages are flattened to images so the text underneath is gone for good.

FAQ
Questions
Is the redaction permanent?
Yes. Every page with a redaction is redrawn as an image with the black boxes, so the original text is not left underneath. Other pages are unchanged.
Why can’t I select text on redacted pages?
Because they became images to guarantee removal. You can run OCR on them later if you need searchable text.
