Search for redactions in a pdf

[josiahw2190767]

Hello,

I have a 5000 page document that I have gone through and redacted but I was hoping there was a way to review my redactions without having to go through the entire document again. Is there any way to skip to only the pages I have redacted? (These redactions have already been applied)

Thank You,

After they've been applied there's no information left from them, so no, it

can't be done.

I have a slightly different question:
Is there a way to search a document for redactions?

I want to find any redactions that may be present in a document. I am NOT looking for whatever was redacted--rather I am looking for the redaction or indication that something has been redacted.

With fingers crossed,

No, that's not possible either, unless the redaction leaves behind some kind of mark that can be identifed, like large black squares, but even that can't be done in Acrobat itself. You would need to use a specialized tool to do it.
