  1. “Secure #redaction by design and through extensive #testing

    #Censor 0.6.0 comes with many more #security improvements, motivated by extensive testing on more then 1,000 #PDF document samples. You may now redact securely also links, form fields and widgets. In rare cases, when partial image redaction fails, the more secure full image removal is used instead.

    But even more important, Censor now warns you, when unsuccessful redaction is detected during postprocessing. This reduces the impact of known issues of unsecure redaction.

    Polish is the 11th language you may speak with Censor. Thanks to its translators (among them, @mondstern)!

    Thanks a lot also to #pypdf, #qpdf, #pikepdf, #Ghostscript, #MuPDF, #PyMuPDF, and #poppler contributors for the great resource of PDF document samples!

  6. That said and celebrated ;), there are things that #Censor is not yet well redacting.

    The upstream library #MuPDF (with its #Python bindings in #PyMuPDF) supports by default only redaction of text, vector graphics and images. Testing on a variety of PDF files (thanks to #pypdf, #qpdf, #ghostscript, and their issue reporters, as well as @pdfarranger for their hint) let me discover that some vector graphics are not properly redacted and an upstream issue has been reported for that.

    Also, form fields (widgets), signatures and links may be incompletely redacted.

    You can find an updated list of “What is redacted? What not?” here: codeberg.org/censor/Censor/iss

  11. I fixed my issue. This is incredibly dumb. Ubuntu's Apparmor restricted the file extensions ghostscript was able to read. And, lo and behold, both XML and ICC (Color profiles) were not in that list.

    This MUST be a bug, now where to report it to?

    I learned a thing or two about postscript and ghostscript on the way. Not sure I needed that but here we are.

    I'll turn this into a quick blog post.

  16. @gborn Ich würde mich freuen, in weiteren Teilen des Beitrags würde nicht nur #Fakturama beleuchtet. Die von mir lizenzierte Fachsoftware (leider unter Windows) erzeugt mittlerweile #XRechnung•en (noch nicht fehlerfrei). Ich hätte gern etwas (ein Skript?), das aus dem PDF/A und der XML ein #ZUGFeRD-PDF macht. Gibt's das? Geht das mit #Ghostscript? Würde es jemand für kleines Geld schreiben?
