Heres how to black out text in a PDF: Open your PDF in docHub. Select Tools, then Redact. Select text. Either double-click to select the text or drag to select lines of text. Apply redaction. Once youve selected the text you want to remove, click Save to apply the changes and save the document.
Include the word redacted in square brackets in place of the name, word, or passage that has been redacted. For instance: In chapter 1 of Fair Game, Valerie Plame Wilson recounts, After nearly ten weeks of physical conditioning [redacted], we felt we could eat nails for breakfast (16).
Redacting a Paper Document: Before scanning the document: Cut-out (literally) all the text to be redacted and properly dispose of (shred) the clippings. Use opaque (100% impenetrable by light; neither transparent nor translucent) tape or paper to cover over the sections to be redacted.
Print your digital document, use a black sharpie (or black paper pieces) to cross-out/cover/hide the sensitive information, re-scan the document, and then save it as a new, redacted version.
Redaction Tool For Microsoft Word To use the redaction tool in Word, you first need to select the text or images that you want to redact. Then, go to the Review tab in the ribbon and click on the Redact button. This will open the Redaction pane on the right side of the window.
Redact sensitive content (Acrobat Pro) In the Edit menu, choose Redact a PDF. Choose All tools Redact a PDF. Select the text or image in a PDF, right-click, and select Redact. Select the text or image in a PDF, and choose Redact text in the floating menu.
Text redaction includes blacking out, blurring out, deleting, or other means of hiding text in a document. Blacking out text is just one method of redacting text to hide sensitive information.
