Foxit PDF Editor enables users to generate a redacted and AIP-protected PDF from an existing PDF. Authorized users are granted access to view the full document while unauthorized users are only able to view the redacted document, which allows for improved knowledge sharing of non-sensitive information within a protected document.
To generate a redacted and AIP-protected PDF, please do the following:
- Mark the content for redaction. See also Mark for Redaction.
- Click Protect > Protect Redactions, log on your AIP server and then choose an AIP template to encrypt the document.
- Then the document with redaction protected by the AIP template is generated and opened with a message box appearing in the document area. Click View the full content to view the full content without redaction. This message box appears only when the document is opened by the document owner.
- After clicking View the full content, two messages appear in the message box. Click Redacted Mode to exit the full content mode and return to the document with redaction. Click View Permission to view the security properties of the document.
- When the authorized users open this protected document, only the message to view permissions appears in the message box.
