I am transitioning from using another program to PDF24 and am trying to establish whether I can achieve a "draft" redaction using the Blacken PDF tool. In another program, material to be redacted is "highlighted" with a red box that allows you to save without applying those redactions. It can then be sent between users to approve the proposed redactions before applying.
In PDF24, I think I can achieve similar by drawing a red box, with no fill to highlight what will be redacted. However, I cannot work out how to make it "no fill" for my rectangle. It will only fill it with a colour.
Is anyone able to advise if this is possible?
Hello,
the Blacken PDF / Redact PDF tool has no draft mode: what you mark there is removed when you save, and the boxes can only be black or white.
For proposed redactions you can mark the areas with comments first, for example red rectangles in Annotate PDF: https://tools.pdf24.org/en/annotate-pdf. Comments do not change the content underneath, so the file can be sent for approval. When the redactions are approved, redact these areas: https://tools.pdf24.org/en/redact-pdf
A real draft mode for redactions: thank you for the suggestion, we will add it to our list.
