Output and limitations
Permanently remove selected text matches from text-based PDF pages.
Review the result carefully. Matches depend on the PDF text layer; text inside images is not detected. This tool is not a guarantee that all sensitive content has been found.
What if processing fails?
Check the supported formats and file limits, then try a smaller file. Keep an original copy. A clear error message will explain an unsupported input or an unavailable processing service.
