Redaction is a daily process for organizations that manage classified, sensitive or private information. Failures in redaction can be costly, as many government agencies, corporations, law-firms and others have learned to their chagrin.

Appligent invented and holds a patent on PDF redaction with the release of Redax, the first software to redact PDF files, back in 1997. Redax completely redacts (removes) text and graphics from the PDF page. Hacking the file cannot reveal properly redacted information.
Redax 5 celebrates 14 years of leadership in electronic document security with a major update to the most reliable and capable redaction technology for PDF files. While Adobe includes basic redaction in Acrobat Professional, it's not as full-featured or workflow-friendly as Redax, nor does Adobe offer a client-server redaction solution like Redax Enterprise Server.
Thousands of national, state and local government agencies, law firms, corporations and institutions world-wide protect sensitive information with Redax everyday.
Redax 5 requires an existing installation of Adobe Acrobat Standard or Professional 7, 8.1, 9 or X. Redax will NOT work with the free Adobe Reader.
