A single pill for all your PDF headaches. Edit, fill out, eSign, and share – on any device.

At some point, you may need to email or share otherwise a PDF document that contains confidential or sensitive information. Quite naturally, we feel apprehensive about disclosing such information. In a situation like this, you can black out any part of a PDF document online using a very simple tool that pdfFiller has to offer. In the past, you would have had to print the document and redact the text with a black highlighter which would often soak through the paper making text on the other side illegible. Besides needing a printer and a scanner, the process probably took far too much time to complete. Now there is a far easier way to redact PDF documents. You can simply use pdfFiller! To get started, upload a document to your account or open one that’s already there. Click the Blackout button, the redacting tools will appear under the main toolbar.

To black out text, click the highlighter icon and select the content that you want to black out by clicking and dragging the cursor. Release the cursor when you have finished redacting the text. You can use the slider to resize the tool.

You can also black out a picture of any dimensions. Click the rectangle icon, place the cursor at any angle of the rectangle you need to black out, press down the mouse button, drag to the opposite angle of the rectangle and release the button.

When you use pdfFiller to redact PDF documents, they look very neat and professional; in addition, you can always remove the black lines without leaving a trace of them. Just click on the black line or rectangle and then click the trash can icon that will appear above. Using pdfFiller saves you a lot of time and makes the redaction process much simpler!

I thought I was signing up for the $6 option, but found out it was actually the $20 one. A bit deceptive. So glad I found this site though. Too bad the original PDF designers didn't create PDFs with the option of converting to Word. So, despite the deceptive billing, I am still happy I found this site, and that the website is so easy to use.
