Redact a PDF
Black out sensitive areas — the page is rebuilt as an image so nothing hides underneath.
Permanently hide sensitive details before sharing a document. Draw black boxes over the parts you want gone, and the page is rebuilt as a flat image so the hidden text can't be recovered underneath.
Redaction happens on your device, so the original sensitive content is never uploaded.
How to redact a pdf
- Add the PDF and go to the page to redact.
- Draw boxes over the details you want removed.
- Download the redacted PDF with content baked out.

Works in any browser
Runs on your laptop or phone in any modern browser — there is nothing to download or install.
Frequently asked questions
Can the redacted text be recovered?
No. Because the page is flattened into an image, there is no selectable text left beneath the black boxes.
Does redaction work across the whole document?
You redact page by page, which lets you target exactly the pages that contain sensitive information.
