What is a good safer way to redact digital documents and pictures. I typically cut the area I want redacted instead of overlaying with solid color.

- srg0 5y agoI usually convert PDF to raster and draw over. White or light gray box overlay will save ink/toner for everyone and is just as opaque as a black box. I still do pixelize with huge pixel size when information is not that important. I think it better conveys that there was something there, and redacted areas look more organic.
- Markoff 5y agoPixelation, just use less squares, I pixelate to one line of huge squares. I would not be so sure about cutting the area, don't forget to print it (to PDF) instead saving it.
