Create a Redaction

Redactions block out sensitive document content that you do not wish to share with outside parties.

In Primafact, redacted text is visible through a dark grey transparent box. You can choose to output redactions in black or white by selecting the appropriate option when printing, e-mailing, exporting and publishing documents. Redactions are automatically applied to documents exported from Primafact using the PDF export and Primafact Publish tools.

Creating Redactions

1. Create redactions as you would an annotation - identify an area in the document page you wish to redact. Place your mouse in the top left corner of the area to redact. Holding the mouse button down, drag the mouse down and right until the box surrounds the area you wish to redact and then release the left button when you have highlighted the area.
2. The Annotation form will open. Select the Redaction button at the bottom of the form.
   
   You will notice the form header change in color to dark grey. 
3. Press the "OK" button to preserve your redaction.
