FAQ

Is this native-text redaction, or just covering text with white?
PDFAmend removes supported native text objects, then draws an opaque black bar. Unlike white-rectangle tools, the source text should not remain selectable. Always inspect the exported PDF in your viewer before sharing sensitive drawings.
Will it work on drawings from AutoCAD, Revit, or Bluebeam?
Yes — as long as the PDF was exported with text layers (you can highlight text in the drawing). Raster/scanned drawings require OCR first.
What if the client name appears in the title block on every sheet?
Use Find (Ctrl+F) → type the name → Redact All. Every instance across all pages is redacted in one click.
