As you may or may not now, some of the Epstein files got released as PDF and where exported from a text editor to PDF. The US government apparently redacted the files by just using a black highlight filler on the text. This does only make the text unreadable in the PDF, but the text is still there.
Example: 2022.03.17-1 Exhibit 1.pdf
Speaking from the technical side: The background highlight just places a coloured box over the text in the PDF while leaving the text in place.
I wondered if there is any way on LibreOffice to create a PDF where such redacting really removes the text on export, yet leaves the rest of the text intact.
A solution should be as user friendly as using the black highlight marker on text.
EDIT: It may is possible to tell Writer to not print certain characters, but the text should stay in place and not break the text layout
