About this tool
Part of the page
Everything you add is drawn onto the page, so it looks identical in every reader and on paper. It isn't a removable comment.
White box covers, it doesn't erase
A white box hides what's beneath it on screen and in print, but the original text is still in the file. Use Redact PDF to remove information.
