Frequently asked questions
Can AnyRedact detect phone numbers automatically?
Phone number formats vary by country and often blend into surrounding text, so there's no automatic detection for them. Draw a rectangle, circle, or polygon over each number yourself, on PDFs and images alike.
Where do phone numbers commonly appear in a document?
Letterheads, email signatures, contact forms, chat screenshots, and contract signature blocks are common spots. It's easy to redact the one in the body text and miss a repeat in a header or footer.
Should I redact my own number or someone else's?
Either — whoever's number appears on the page. If a document lists several people's numbers, decide upfront which ones need covering rather than assuming only your own is sensitive.
