Is your PDF really redacted?
A black box over text doesn’t remove it — the words stay in the file, copyable in one click. Drop a PDF to check, on your device, whether its text is still recoverable. Nothing is uploaded.

What this check reports
A black box hides a PDF’s text on screen, but the words stay in the file. This reads that text layer in your browser, the same way a copy or pdftotext would. If any is recoverable, you see the count, the pages, and a sample of it; treat that as exposed. A clean result means no text layer was found, though a scanned image reads the same, so confirm the file.
