Parts with redactions applied cannot be undone. The data for parts with redactions applied are completely deleted.

When redactions are applied to a PDF document in which a digital signature and watermark have been added using Adobe Acrobat, and it is imported using Desktop Editor, if the redactions are applied to one of the watermarks which have been set before importing, redactions are applied to the same watermark on other pages in the document.
Text around the redaction range may be deleted when the redactions are applied, depending on the shape and layout (rotation, etc.) of the text.

The following documents cannot be redacted.
