    I know this is years old. I just wanted to add a work around that I discovered. 

     

    Use the highlight tool and change the color to black with 0% transparancy. This works for print, which is what I needed, but does not work to protect the text within the file. Beyond that, you could print the highlighted file then scan into the computer as a new pdf. OCR would make the remaining text searchable.

    Nope, it's a Pro feature.

    Thanks,

    I do know it's avaliable in the X 10 Standard version.

    What about the 9 Pro?

    Redaction is not supposed to be available with Standard. Have you actually used it with Acrobat X Standard? If so, are you sure it wasn't using the Redax third-party plug-in?

    Redaction is available with Acrobat 9 Pro.
