Description macgruff69 2006-11-26 19:45:29 UTC 
Are there any plans to make a add on for redaction similar to the redaction 
tool offered in either adobe professional or ms office 2003?  It would sure 
help those that work with legal documents on a daily basis.

Does Writers feature cover your requirements by using "Edit.Changes.Record" from
menu?

Found more about that. This feature is required to redact content in the
document which you do not want to share to ohers.
