Frequently Asked Questions
Can someone select or copy text under the black box?
No! True redaction permanently deletes the text underneath so it cannot be highlighted or copied.
Can I search for words to redact them automatically throughout the file?
Yes! You can type a keyword or number to search for it and redact all matches across the entire file in one click.
What color will the redacted boxes be?
You can choose classic black, whiteout, or custom colors to blackout or whiteout sensitive information cleanly.
Are my PDF files uploaded to any server?
No. All processing takes place entirely within your browser memory. Your confidential files never leave your device.
