# Redact PDF

|

## Notes
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Accepted input format: `.pdf`.
|
||
|
|
- This is a fast (synchronous) tool that returns the result directly.
|
||
|
|
- This performs true redaction: matched text is removed from the PDF content stream, not merely obscured visually.
|
||
|
|
- The `found` field in the response indicates how many occurrences were redacted.
|
||
|
|
- You can redact up to 50 terms in a single request.
