Question

Erase a sentence in a scanned pdf document

A scanned pdf file needs to be sent with confidential info edited out. Leaving a blank space is OK.

1.) How can sentences be securely erased in a pdf document so the intended reader cannot find the confidential info?

2.) How about securely deleting a page ?

Thank you.

    1) Use the redaction tool.

    2) After deleting the page use File > Save As.. to save the file.

    Very funny! Is there really a redaction tool? It does not show up in Help>Search. And the online help shows "Choose View > Toolbars > Redaction. " but its not there either.

    Advanced -> Redaction.

    I don't know if it is just in Pro or in Standard as well.
