# pdfcraft-audit
|
|
|
|
Layer L4 (may use `edit`): verification tooling, the faux-redaction audit.
|
|
|
|
```rust
|
|
let findings: Vec<Finding> = audit_redactions(&doc)?; // page, kind, rect, covered_text
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
It reports two kinds of finding:
|
|
|
|
- **faux redaction**: an opaque filled rectangle painted *after* text it overlaps, dark enough
|
|
against the text's colour (WCAG contrast below 3) to hide it, while the text is still
|
|
extractable underneath;
|
|
- **unapplied mark**: a Redact annotation that was marked but never applied.
|
|
|
|
A properly applied redaction removes the text, so it never flags. Page backgrounds, table
|
|
shading and highlights don't either: they're painted before the text, or light against it.
|
|
|
|
Limits, by design and documented rather than hidden:
|
|
|
|
- only filled rectangles count as covers, drawn with `re` or as a single `m`/`l` subpath whose
|
|
corners form an axis-aligned rectangle (not other paths, shadings or patterns), and a
|
|
translucent one (`/ca` below 1) is not flagged;
|
|
- covers inside form XObjects are found, but only text drawn directly in the page content is
|
|
checked under them;
|
|
- annotation rectangles are compared in unrotated user space, so `/Rotate` pages may misalign.
|
|
|
|
It fails closed: an undecodable content stream, malformed `/Annots`, form XObjects nested deeper
|
|
than 32 or in a cycle, or a walk past the operator bound is an error, never "no findings".
|
|
|
|
Surfaces: the `redact_audit` automation tool and `pdfcraft-cli`.
