Introduction to Redact & Strike-out in BoloSign
BoloSign’s Redact & Strikeout feature is super helpful! Whether you're reviewing contracts, handling sensitive information, or making document revisions, this feature ensures clarity, security, and compliance.

FAQs About the Redact & Strike-out Feature in BoloSign
1. What’s the difference between Redact and Strikeout?
Strikeout: Marks text as invalid while keeping it visible (useful for contract edits).
Redact: Permanently removes or blacks out text so it cannot be recovered (useful for hiding confidential data).
2. Can I undo a redaction after saving the document?
No, once a redaction is applied and saved, the information is permanently removed for security reasons. But the owner/editor of the document will be able to edit or remove it anytime.
3. Is the redacted information still present in the document’s metadata?
No, BoloSign ensures that redacted text is permanently erased from both the visible document and the metadata.
4. Can I strike out text before sending a document for signing?
Yes! You can strike out sections of a document before sharing it, allowing all parties to see modifications before signing.
