| Redaction |
Redaction is a feature that allows you to
REMOVE sensitive information from a PDF document. PentaPDF Editor will black out sensitive
text or other information, permanently deleting the content from the PDF document. Some
may recall an episode of some years ago that saw a U.S. government document released with
many terms "redacted". In truth the text simply had a black highlight placed on
top so it was possible to "read" the text anyway. This won't happen with
PentaPDF Editor Redaction. |
