Redact a PDF: certificate guide
A certificate usually has fixed fields and aligned columns, so replacing whole lines keeps it looking original.
Steps
- Open the PDF.
- Choose Redact.
- Mark the sensitive text.
- Save — text is removed.
Tip: Black boxes alone don't hide text; true redaction removes it.
Redact sensitive information permanently and protect PDFs with passwords and permissions.
