If you're really worried about security, you MUST continue through the last step. If you stop at the print to PDF step, no "advanced" skills are required to reveal the hidden text. You can just click and drag with your mouse and copy the hidden text. This is exactly what happened with some classified government documents around 10 years ago.

Finally, someone who revealed the easiest way to redact. All other websites and Guides are just on the money trip, recommending "free" tools that actually need the Pro version, so no so free.

Is it possible to create a repeated redaction on each page of a pdf, as in blanking out a repeated header? Or if not by redaction then by some other means? Thanks!

Im having problems with preview on macOSBigSur. After highlighting notes and closing the pdf file, the highlighted portions are not getting saved and only random lines are highlighted. This defeats the whole purpose of the preview app. Can anyone help?

I have a question. When I export pdf to PNG, the PNG doc only shows one page (from a total of 13pages). how do I export the full doc (multiple pages) to PNG? Thanks in advance

@@privatosphero597 from the Markup Toolbar there will be a 'Redact' tool (around third from the left). Click on this and then when you select any information in your doc it will be redacted.

Hi, useful tips, without the need to pay the nonsense fee for an app like pdf expert (extra fee for this feature like a scam). I have this message from Preview: The content behind the shape won’t be visible in most PDF viewers, but it can be made visible in some apps, any anyone else? Maybe you need to update this .. thanks

The message is correct. To see how to make the changes permanent, start at 1:37 in the video.

Thanks for the vid!! Please tell me how you CUT OUT (DELETE) parts of the pdf? I don't mean "crop" (therefore keeping the pdf's selected part/s in place, and removing/deleting everything else OUTSIDE the document selection); I mean the OPPOSITE! So, to select parts of pages that you want gone, then remove THESE SELECTED PARTS (and keep everything else OUTSIDE the document selection in place!!). And once you've removed these selected pages (or page parts), the pdf's content that comes after the selected/removed part to snap back to the position right after the content that preceded the selected/deleted part! *So not to leave a blank area! You know, just like would happen if you were deleting a selection in a Word document! Can't this (simple) thing be done in pdfs?

Preview is not a word processing app, so it doesn't have that capability. Preview can only delete an entire page of a PDF, not sections.
