Whiteout
Foxit PDF Editor provides the Whiteout feature to enable you to apply redaction with
one-click, improving your productivity in the document workflow. You can use the
feature to simply and securely erase any content to white background from your PDF
file with one click like an eraser, leaving no trace behind of the previous content.
To remove content from your PDF with the Whiteout command, do as the following:
1. Choose Protect > Whiteout. The cursor changes into a cross .
2. Click and drag a rectangle around the content you want to remove.
3. (Optional) If you put the cursor over text, it changes into and allows you to
select the text you want to remove. Or you can double-click an image to remove
the entire image.
4. Click OK in the prompt warning you the “Whiteout” cannot be undone. You can
click Don’t ask again in the prompt so that you won’t be bothered the next time
you use the feature. Then you can see the selected content is removed and
replaced with the white background.
Note: Like redaction, the whiteout operation is permanent and cannot be reversed.
Windows Information Protection (WIP)
Windows Information Protection (WIP), a feature that enterprises use to protect
enterprise data by encrypting it and separating it from personal (or employees’) data,
provides a way to manage data policy enforcement for enterprise apps and
documents. For enterprises that are using WIP policies can include Foxit PDF Editor
and network locations in their policy restriction on PDF documents, which helps to
protect enterprise data against potential data leak on enterprise owned-devices and
personal devices that employees bring to work.
Note: To run WIP in your system, Windows 10 (version rs2 and later) is required.
