A black bar over a PDF might look safe – but in reality, it often isn’t. If you need to remove sensitive data for good, simple “covering up” won’t cut it. RedactPDF makes sure your confidential content is not just hidden, but permanently erased – whether it’s text, images, or scanned documents.
Four typical use cases
- Manual selection – in images or text
- Coordinate-based – when positions are known
- Search & remove – when text is known
