About this tool
See what a PDF carries and remove comments, highlights, drawings, stamps, attached files, links, form fields and JavaScript before you share it — or export the comments and save the attachments first.
The PDF’s object structure is edited directly (page annotations, the embedded-files tree, document and page actions, the form); text, images and page content are not touched. The saved file is read again and only downloaded when none of the selected items remain.
Example: a reviewed contract with 23 comments and 2 attached drafts → a clean copy with both removed and verified.
Flattening keeps form values as fixed text. Hidden text in the page itself and document properties are handled by Redact PDF and the PDF Metadata Editor.
