Blurring/hiding text in Acrobat

Acrobat 9.0.0

I'm a new user. I would like to know if Acrobat has a feature where I can blur parts of the text so that my reader will not see them. Ideally, this would just be a selection tool type of an action.

If not, does anyone have any tips from hiding parts of a document from a reader? I want the reader to see that there is some text there, but that it is not available for them to read.

Thanks!

Avery

    Check out the redaction tools that are available in Acrobat. For example: http://blogs.adobe.com/acrolaw/redaction/

    Also to add to that, Acrobat 9 has new variables which can also search
    for dates, credit card numbers, email address and social security
    numbers. You can add your own if you know GREP ...
