            Bug ID: 452403
           Summary: Okular needs ability to sanitize and redact PDF (and
                    possibly other types of) documents.
           Product: okular
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: okular-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: lakeleaf8 at gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

I posted this earlier on the okular-devel mailing list, but I think I posted in
the wrong location to ask for feature requests, so I'm reposting it here.
Something that would be highly beneficial and help move people away from
proprietary PDF viewers/editors and use okular instead is ability to redact and
sanitize images/text. I'm sure some of you use annotation and then rasterize
it, but that makes things complicated when you have other annotations you don't
want to be rasterized also. Something that is missing in okular is the ability
to securely and permanently redact stuff you want to be removed from sensitive
documents. Okular has the ability to sign and read signatures making it the
most advanced libre PDF reader there is, but what it truly also needs is
redaction abilities.
