journalism tips
Names, signatures, and reference numbers can expose a source. True redaction removes them so they can't be recovered from the published file.
Newsrooms have leaked source identities by publishing PDFs with removable black boxes β flattening prevents that.
Also run the document through the Metadata Remover to strip author and software fingerprints.
Everything runs locally, so sensitive source material is never uploaded.
