Question

Is it possible to remove invisible texts with a preflight profile

Hi,

I have a pdf document where some texts are invisible, but taken in account by the search tool... or can be copied/pasted.

I guess these texts were masked on the original software file.

I wonder if it is possible to remove them with a preflight profile, then the search tool will reconize them anymore.

Thanks.

Hi bebarth,

 

Thank you for reaching out.

 

This seems to be weird behavior if the text is masked. Would it be possible for you to share the PDF with us in a private message so we can check?

You may try sanitizing the PDF. Please refer to the following help document: https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/using/removing-sensitive-content-pdfs.html

Check if that helps.

 

Thanks,

Meenakshi
