Whiteout

The application provides the Whiteout feature to enable you to apply redaction with one-click, improving your productivity in the document workflow. You can use the feature to simply and securely erase any content to white background from your PDF file with one click like an eraser, leaving no trace behind of the previous content.

To remove content from your PDF with the Whiteout command, do as the following:

1.       Choose Protect > Whiteout. The cursor changes into a cross .

2.       Click and drag a rectangle around the content you want to remove.

3.       (Optional) If you put the cursor over text, it changes into  and allows you to select the text you want to remove. Or you can double-click an image to remove the entire image.

4.       Click OK in the prompt warning you the “Whiteout” cannot be undone. You can click Don’t ask again in the prompt so that you won’t be bothered the next time you use the feature. Then you can see the selected content is removed and replaced with the white background.

Note: Like redaction, the whiteout operation is permanent and cannot be reversed.
