The app, crates, binaries, bundle id, packaging, icons, screenshots and docs are now PdfCraft / pdfcraft (repo storytold/pdfcraft). On first launch the desktop app moves the PrintCraft settings and crash-recovery folders to the new name, and both apps read settings saved under the old storage key, so upgrades keep recent files, preferences and unsaved work. The signing test fixtures keep their PrintCraft subject names (they are binary). Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

# pdfcraft-redact
|
|
|
|
Layer L4 (may use `edit`): redaction, architecture §11.2.
|
|
|
|
```rust
|
|
// Marks are Redact annotations (pdfcraft-annot: Shape::Redact { quads, overlay }).
|
|
let marks: Vec<Mark> = marks(&doc); // page, areas (user space), fill, overlay text
|
|
let report = apply(&mut doc, None)?; // everything, or Some(&[pages])
|
|
clear_marks(&mut doc, None)?; // remove marks without applying
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`apply` removes, under every marked area:
|
|
|
|
- **text**: glyphs are cut out of `Tj`/`TJ`/`'`/`"` and replaced by a `TJ` displacement of the
|
|
same advance, so the rest of the line keeps its exact position. Widths come from `/Widths`,
|
|
`/W`/`/DW` (composite fonts, embedded CMaps with codespace and CID ranges), Type 3 font
|
|
matrices, and approximations for the standard 14. A glyph goes when it overlaps an area by
|
|
more than a fifth of its size (or a point) both ways; zero-size text goes when its origin is
|
|
inside;
|
|
- **images**: fully covered → removed; partly covered → a copy with the covered pixels cleared
|
|
(8/16-bit and 1/2/4-bit images, image masks; Flate/LZW/RL/A85/AHx). Codecs PdfCraft can't
|
|
re-encode (DCT, JPX, JBIG2, CCITT) are removed whole (fail-closed); inline images under an
|
|
area are removed;
|
|
- **vectors**: covered paths are removed; partly covered paths and shadings are clipped so
|
|
nothing paints inside the areas;
|
|
- **form XObjects**: rewritten recursively into new objects (pages sharing the original keep it);
|
|
- **annotations** whose rectangle overlaps (with their pop-ups), and **form fields** with a
|
|
widget under a mark;
|
|
- the marks themselves, replaced by boxes in their fill colour (and overlay text) drawn into the
|
|
page as a `/PCMark /Redaction` stream.
|
|
|
|
A verification pass re-reads each redacted page and fails the operation if any glyph or inline
|
|
image is still under an area. Content that can't be decoded makes the operation fail rather than
|
|
leave it unredacted.
|
|
|
|
## Remove hidden information / Sanitize
|
|
|
|
```rust
|
|
let found = sanitize::scan(&doc); // [(Hidden, count)] per category
|
|
sanitize::remove_hidden(&mut doc, &[Hidden::Comments])?; // chosen categories
|
|
sanitize::sanitize(&mut doc)?; // all of them
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Categories: metadata (`/Info`, XMP), file attachments, comments, form fields (flattened so the
|
|
values stay visible), hidden text (render modes 3 and 7, or wholly off the page), hidden layers
|
|
(content of off optional-content groups, then the groups), bookmarks, links/actions/JavaScript,
|
|
and `/PieceInfo` private data. Both make the next save a full rewrite.
|
|
|
|
`patterns` finds phone numbers, e-mail addresses, credit card numbers (Luhn-checked), US Social
|
|
Security numbers and dates for Search & Redact.
|
|
|
|
Not yet: pattern locales, struct-tree/alt-text cleanup, metadata and hidden-information
|
|
sanitising (M8.4), re-encoding of DCT images (they are removed instead).
