To black out text in a PDF permanently, open it in InkOut, draw boxes or search for the words, and export. Unlike a black shape, which leaves the text copyable underneath, InkOut deletes it and verifies the result. Up to 5 pages are free, and nothing is uploaded.
Black out text in a PDF so it's actually gone, not just covered. Draw a box, export, and get an automatic check. Free, no upload.
Drawing a black rectangle over text in most PDF tools hides it on screen, but the words are still in the file. Anyone can select, copy or search them. InkOut removes the content under every box, then runs an automatic check on the exported file. You only download once it shows "Verified".
No. Pages with redactions are rebuilt as images so nothing underneath survives. Pages without redactions stay unchanged.
Up to 5 pages with manual boxes. Unlimited pages and keyword search: $4.99 for 24 hours or $7.99/month.
