Hello,

Is it possible to batch redact handwritten numbers such as banking, checking accounts?

We have loan documents and one page is filled out by the customer for ACH.

They supply us with their checking account or debit card info for payment.

These are handwritten and so far I cannot get Adobe to recognize the numbers even though they are in the standard format.

If this is not possible, can Adobe batch delete the entire page in question as a batch?

Thank you, Paul

- If the texts always appear at the same physical location on the page, then you can use a script to redact that area, yes.

- If not, you can easily delete the entire page.

try67, I have found it easier to just delete the page.  Is there a batch method to use to delete the "page" in all the documents in a folder?  We have around 4000 and have been doing them manually.

Thank you, Paul
