Redact Tab

The Redact tab contains components that allow you to redact a term or whole pages in a document. Note that redactions can be burned into the document and they will remove the underlying text content. You also have the ability to search for a term and redact the search results - refer to the Searching Documents > Redact Search Results topic for more information.
