Cover mistakes, old dates and unwanted text with a clean white box — right in your browser.
Loading editor…
To white out a PDF, open it above, choose White out, and drag a box over the text you want covered — then type the replacement on top if you need one. The box is baked into the page on download, so it cannot be peeled off like a sticky-note layer. Free for 3 documents a day in your browser, with no upload and no sign-up. One honest caveat: this is a visual cover-up, not redaction — the original text may still sit in the file's data.
Drop it into the box above — it opens instantly, nothing is uploaded.
Click “White out” in the toolbar, then click the text you want covered. Drag the box into place and resize it until the old content is fully hidden.
Use “Add text” to type the new value on top if you need one, then click Download to save the corrected PDF.
Cover the error and type the correction — no source file needed.
Refresh prices on menus, quotes and rate cards without redesigning them.
Blank last year's date before reusing a recurring document.
Cover details that are irrelevant for the recipient (see the redaction note below for sensitive data).
DoceasePDF's white-out tool works like correction fluid for PDFs: a clean white box that covers typos, outdated prices, wrong dates or anything else that shouldn't be there, flattened permanently into the downloaded page.
It all happens in your browser — the invoice, form or contract you're correcting is never uploaded to a server, so the content you're covering is never seen by anyone else.
One caution: white-out visually covers content rather than deleting the underlying data, so for legally sensitive redaction of confidential text, treat it as a visual fix, not certified redaction. For everyday corrections, cover, retype and download.
Continue your PDF workflow: Erase Text in PDF — The full erase-and-replace workflow., Add Text to PDF — Type the replacement on top. or Annotate PDF — Highlight and note instead of covering.
The white-out box is baked into the page as solid white when you download. On a standard white page it's invisible — the covered content simply reads as blank space, in every PDF reader and in print. Resize the box precisely with the corner handle so it covers the mistake and nothing else.
The original Word file is gone, the designer is unreachable, but the PDF has last year's date on it. White-out is the practical fix: cover the outdated value, type the correction with Add text, and download a clean copy — no source file, no re-export, no begging the original author.

Open the PDF in the tool above, click “White out”, then click the text to cover. Resize the box until it's hidden, optionally add replacement text, and click Download.
The box is baked into the page as solid white, so on a white page it blends invisibly — the covered content simply looks blank in every PDF reader.
Yes — after placing the white box, use “Add text” to type the corrected value directly on top of it before downloading.
No. White-out covers content visually; certified redaction also strips the underlying data. For everyday fixes white-out is perfect, but don't rely on it to hide legally sensitive text.
The box is pure white, so it blends on white pages. On colored backgrounds or grey-ish scans it will show as a white rectangle — crop the area instead, or accept the visible correction like paper white-out.
Yes — place as many boxes as you need across any pages, and adjust each one independently before downloading.
Visually no — the white box is flattened into the page. But the underlying text data can remain in the file, so for legally sensitive redaction use a certified redaction tool rather than white-out.
