Redact PDF
Black out names, numbers and other private details in a PDF so they cannot be recovered. Redacted pages are flattened, not just covered.

Questions
Are my PDF files uploaded?
No. The PDF is opened and changed by your browser on your device. PiSpace never receives the file.
Does it work with password-protected PDFs?
Files that need a password to open cannot be processed. Remove the password in your PDF reader first.
Why are redacted pages turned into images?
Drawing a black box on top of text leaves the text in the file, where it can be copied out. This tool rebuilds each redacted page as an image, so the hidden content is gone for good.
