Redact PDF

List the words or phrases to hide. Each page is rebuilt with the matching text painted over in solid black and the original text objects discarded, so redacted content cannot be copied back out. The result is an image-based PDF and is no longer searchable.

This tool runs entirely in your browser. Your document is never uploaded.
