UWP Redaction Library

Permanently redact content within PDF documents. PSPDFKit for Windows offers developers a robust API to automate redaction in any app, as well as a beautiful UI for creating, previewing, and applying redactions.

PSPDFKit SDKs are deployed in some of the world’s most popular applications, such as those made by Autodesk, Disney, DocuSign, Dropbox, IBM, and Lufthansa.

Key Capabilities

• Create, preview, apply – Programmatically or by using the UI

• Search and redact – For strings, preset patterns, or regex

• Client-side – Redact directly in the app (no server needed)

• Customizable – Trigger workflows, adjust colors and overlay text

• Extendable – Add editing, bookmarks, annotation, and more
