Manual Redact PDF
Upload a PDF, review every page manually, place exact black redaction boxes, then export a rebuilt file that removes the original text layer from redacted pages.
How to redact a PDF with manual review
Manual Redact is for cases where you need human-reviewed placement instead of automated detection.
Upload your PDF
Select a PDF from your device or drag it onto the upload area to open it in the manual redaction editor.
Place redactions exactly where needed
Use Redact for exact box-based masking on signatures, stamps, names, account numbers, or any custom region that needs human review.
Export a securely rebuilt PDF
Apply Changes creates a new PDF through the secure redaction pipeline so touched pages do not keep the original searchable text behind the black boxes.
