What are the limits of Redact PDF?
Up to 50 total pages and 100 regions. Every page is rendered into a fresh PDF, with a small safety margin around each region. Output is checked for selectable text and attachments. It removes text search, forms, links, bookmarks, original metadata and signatures. Automatic text detection is not provided; you must identify all sensitive areas, including repeated information. Visual review is essential. PDF inputs stay in browser memory; no documents or recognized text are uploaded. PDF and OCR engines are served from this website. No remote links are opened automatically. Use authorized documents, review outputs, and download before closing the page. Input up to 20 MB / 200 pages unless a stricter limit is stated; output up to 80 MB. Edits may invalidate existing digital signatures.
