Four searches.
Three clear steps.

Follow the same name, email, phone number, and case number from the search list to the saved copy.

Windows

Step 1 · Find & mark

Add as many searches as the job needs.

Search for names, numbers, or phrases. Add another search whenever you need one, and/or mark an area on the page.

Excise PDF on Windows: four searches for a name, email, phone number, and case number, with 3, 2, 2, and 2 matches.
Four searches. Nine matches in this sample.
Step 2 · Review

You decide what goes.

Review the matches from the same searches. Leave a match unchecked if it should stay, then run the redaction.

Excise PDF on Windows: the same case intake summary at Review, with nine of nine matches selected.
The same nine matches, selected for removal.
Step 3 · Save the copy

A separate copy. A clear result.

Excise PDF removes the selected content and reopens the copy. Read what the checks found, review the result, and save it. Your original is unchanged.

Excise PDF on Windows: the checked copy with a Verified result, alongside the document with nine redactions.
This run received a Verified result. Nine matches were removed.

Your document. Your choices.

Search for it.
Or draw around it.

Use either approach, or combine them in the same job.

A signature, stamp, or picture?

Draw a rectangle around the area you want removed. A mark clears that place on that page; it does not search for similar content elsewhere.

By default, marking an area makes that page an image in the copy. The receipt explains what was checked.

Save your searches.
Use them again.

Keep a search list for future PDFs, or run it across a folder. Folder runs apply the list without individual match review and give each input a result on the receipt.

The check comes with the copy

Know what was checked.
Know what needs a look.

Excise PDF reopens the file it created and gives you a receipt. A Verified result applies to the checks named for that file and that run. It is not a blanket promise about everything in the document.

Understand the verification receipt →
  • Verified

    The named checks passed.

  • Review required

    The receipt tells you what needs a look.

  • Not verified

    The receipt names what did not pass.
