How it works
Process copies pages into a new file and strips scripts, metadata, and extra objects. The download stays in this tab. The job runs in this tab. The file is not posted to PactPDF. Metadata strip.
On this device
The source stays in this tab. The cleaned file downloads here. Close the tab and the job is gone. There is no locker.
When to use
A file you want without scripts or old metadata before you send it. An offer pack that should not carry old author fields. A tender annex that should travel clean.
When not to use
A password crack. Sanitize does not open a locked file. Decrypt first if there is an open password. Sanitize does not redact text. Use Redact for a string.
