“Preparing for the blackout”
#Censor, the #PDF document #redaction tool, which allows you to draw black rectangles and permanently remove text and images below them, was released in version 0.9.0 (with a follow-up v0.9.1): https://codeberg.org/censor/Censor/releases/tag/v0.9.0
This version concentrates on draft and UI features. You can now save drafted redactions to the PDF document as PDF redaction annotations. Alternatively, you may export them to a JSON file, which may serve as a template for future redaction sessions. Censor’s welcome screen with new drop-file support and the keyboard shortcuts dialog were revised. On top of that, you may now censor in fullscreen mode.
Find Censor on @flathub@floss.social: https://flathub.org/apps/page.codeberg.censor.Censor and @Codeberg@social.anoxinon.de: https://codeberg.org/censor/Censor or get it from your distribution package maintainers: https://repology.org/project/censor-document-redaction/versions.
Thanks to its translators, Censor is currently available in 18 languages. You may contribute to translations at https://translate.codeberg.org/engage/censor

RE: https://floss.social/@gnome/116985931040333333 This week, I presented #Censor and its latest release for the first time in This Week in #GNOME, or shortly #TWIG. You may find lot of nice first-hand reports there, and a few more screencasts of Censor in use, too (showing draft saving and redaction of non-PDF documents)! https://thisweek.gnome.org/posts/2026/07/twig-259/#third-party-projects
