How do I delete or redact information from a scanned PDF? I tried covering it up with a black box, but anyone can just remove the black box and the info is still there. This comes up often for me, but right now I need to scan and send a credit card processing statement to a new processing company and I don’t want critical information like my business name or current merchant account number to be visible or hackable.
Hi,
you can use PDF Architect for this, it has a proper redaction tool that actually removes the content completely from the PDF (not only the visible information) as part of the “review” module.
best regards,
Thanks Robin. I think I had an older version when I asked the
question. I did notice that the newer version I am using now does have
redaction.
