Frequently Asked Questions

Is the redaction permanent?

Yes! Unlike simply drawing black boxes, this tool permanently removes the underlying content. The redacted data cannot be recovered from the output file.

Can someone copy text under redactions?

No. The text and images under redaction boxes are completely removed from the PDF, not just covered. There's nothing left to copy.

What types of content can I redact?

You can redact any visible content: text, images, tables, signatures, personal information, confidential data — anything you can see on the page.

Is there an undo after applying?

No. Once you click "Apply Redactions" and download, the changes are permanent. Always keep a backup of your original file.
