Privacy before sending
Share a PDF without leaking hidden document data
Inspect what the PDF contains beyond the visible page, clean the right structures and verify the exact copy you will send.
Workflow outcome
A reviewed sharing copy plus evidence of what was detected and removed.
- 1
Inspect the original
Run Privacy Doctor before changing the file so metadata, forms, annotations, attachments, layers, actions and signatures remain visible as evidence.
A risk list tied to the actual source PDF.
- 2
Apply the least destructive fix
Remove document properties when metadata is the only issue. Use sanitized reconstruction only when active or hidden structures must be discarded.
A new clean copy while the original stays untouched.
- 3
Verify and protect the copy
Reopen the result, review every visible page and add 256-bit password protection only if the recipient can receive the password through a separate channel.
The exact checked file ready to share.
Verifiable privacy
The document is not uploaded. OCR may download its engine and model, but it does not send the file with that download.
Original untouched
Every operation creates a new copy. Keep the original until the output has been reviewed visually.
