Our assessment
iLovePDF is a general-purpose PDF toolbox - merge, split, compress, convert - that added redaction alongside everything else. For someone who already uses it for conversions and needs to black out a few lines, that convenience is the whole argument, and the free tier means there is nothing to buy for a one-off job.
Treat the redaction feature with care. There is no automatic detection, no audit trail, and the free tier's caps are not published as numbers, which is why this catalog records them as unpublished rather than inventing a figure. For a single page with two lines to remove it is entirely adequate; for anything where a failed redaction has consequences, a purpose-built tool is the better answer.
Strengths
- Free tier that is genuinely usable for one-off jobs
- Redaction sits alongside conversion and merging tools
- Cheapest paid plan in this catalog
Limitations
- Manual detection only, with no audit trail
- Free-tier limits are not published
- Redaction is a minor feature of a general toolbox
