PDF forms, text editing and redaction

Create fillable PDF form fields, edit and replace text, and permanently black out confidential information in Kazi PDF.

#Add fillable form fields

1. Choose Form Field (F) in the tool bar.
2. Click where the field should go and pick its type: | Type | For | |---|---| | Text | Names, addresses, any typed answer | | Checkbox | Yes/no and tick-boxes | | Radio | One choice from several | | Dropdown | A choice from a list | | Date | Dates | | Signature request | Where someone should sign | | Initials | Where someone should initial |
3. Name the field and resize it.

People can fill the fields in Kazi or in any PDF reader, and you can fill them yourself before downloading.

#Edit or replace text

Edit / Replace Text covers existing text with a clean patch and writes your new text on top, matching the size. Use it to fix a typo, update a date or change a figure in a PDF you didn't create.

To change the same word everywhere, use Find & replace (Ctrl+H).

#Redact (black out) confidential information

1. Choose Redact in the tool bar.
2. Drag over the text or area to hide.
3. Download the PDF.

Warning: Check every page before sending. Redaction boxes are drawn over the content and flattened into the downloaded PDF. For legal or highly sensitive documents, also check the downloaded file in another PDF reader.
