Local processing. Your choice of files.

Documents, OCR and images are processed on your Mac. You choose which files to provide and where to save results. If you save into a cloud-synced folder, that service’s own settings apply.

PDF redaction exports a separate image-only PDF with your marked areas obscured. Inspect every page before sharing: the app cannot identify sensitive information you did not mark. Scan cleanup and some PDF operations can remove text layers or interactive features; keep your originals.
