How to use Redact PDF
- Choose the PDF that contains private information.
- Drag boxes over everything you want to hide, on any page.
- Press Apply redactions and check the result before sharing.
True redaction, not just a black box
A black rectangle drawn in an ordinary editor can often be removed, and the text underneath copied out. AllInOnePDF rebuilds every redacted page as an image with the boxes burned in, so the hidden text is genuinely gone. Pages you didn't touch stay sharp and searchable.
Private by design
Redact PDF runs entirely in your browser. Your file is processed on your own device and is never uploaded to a server, there's no sign-up, and the result is ready to download as soon as it's done.
Questions
Can someone recover the redacted text?
No. Redacted pages are rebuilt without the original text.
Why can't I select text on redacted pages anymore?
That's how the hidden text is removed. Other pages keep selectable text.
Is it safe to redact sensitive files here?
Yes. Your file never leaves your device, which is safer than tools that upload it.
