Features
- Converts Acrobat highlight annotations and rectangle annotations to redaction annotations in a batch.
- The use of dedicated marking tools in accordance with regulatory requirements makes it easy to perform masking tasks.
- The creation of Redaction Proposal Version (Redaction Proposal PDF, Justification Table for Redaction Proposal Version) and Final Redacted Version (Final Redacted PDF), which used to be a complicated process, can be easily created with a single click.
- Redact automatically checks whether any text remains under the masking area, and pinpoints the areas that have not been unredacted.
- PMDA disclosure requests are now supported. Create a disclosure request PDF with the redaction annotations converted to rectangle annotations.
New Functionalities
- Added the ability to create a Disclosure PDF in which redaction annotations are converted to rectangle annotations, in accordance with PMDA disclosure requirements.
Improvements
- There was a problem with Unredacted information when creating a Final Redacted Version of certain PDF files. Unredacted information can be found in the Verification PDF. It was found that this problem can be avoided by not changing the blue links to black, so the blue links can be specified not to be changed to black in the configuration file. Note that this problem can also be prevented by deleting the link before creating the Final Redacted Version.
