Redaction
Document text confidentiality is achieved by redaction - the blacking
out of pieces of text or images. Select text or images to be marked for
redaction with the Redact tool in the Document menu or the Security
toolbar. This menu also allows marking for redaction by searching. The
program finds all occurrences of a given text string in the document,
letting you review them and choose which will be marked for redaction.
Use the Apply redaction menu item or button to have all marked items
(whether resulting from searches or selection) blacked out permanently.
When a redacted document is saved, the program always offers Save As,
because you should save the redacted file to a new name. The original file
remains with the redacted items marked but still readable.
Warnings:
• Be aware that once a file is saved with redacted items, there is no
way of restoring the removed content – it can neither be viewed
nor found by searching.
• If text to be redacted contains typing errors, maybe some sensitive
data will not be removed by searching. We suggest that you
always check a search-redacted document manually before
releasing it.
