<p id="par_id791562795799809" class="paragraph" dir="auto">The current document is exported to a drawing document edited in LibreOffice Draw. The redacted text or contents is removed from the drawing document and replaced by the redaction block of pixels, preventing any attempt to restore or copy the original contents. The redacted drawing document is often exported to PDF for publication or sharing.</p>
<p id="par_id671562795811658" class="paragraph" dir="auto">When redacting, the redaction shapes are transparent and in gray so the user can see what is being redacted.</p>
