True redaction removes the text and images from the file — not a black box on top. Plus real in-place text editing, fill + sign, reorder pages, and OCR.
LaunchEdit text in place, sign, redact, fill forms, and reorganize PDF files in your browser — all on your device. No upload, no subscription.
Drop two versions of a contract or drawing set. Moved notes read as moves, changed values light up digit by digit, and hidden text is named.
LaunchSide-by-side or overlay PDF diff driven by one engine that reads each file into a structured model — text, vector geometry, images, form fields, annotations — and compares the models. Moves show as moves, edits show only where they happened, and any PDF type works without picking a mode.
Drop a Gerber ZIP, an ODB++ .tgz or an IPC-2581 .xml and inspect every layer — compare revisions, snap-to-pad measure, run DRC and preview the board in 3D.
LaunchOpen Gerber, Excellon, ODB++ and IPC-2581 PCB files. Inspect layers, measure traces, run DRC, export to PNG / SVG / DXF.
Open a .step / .stp part and it measures itself: volume, thinnest wall, draft and undercuts on load, and a hole list with a BOM in one click. Measure, section, export STL.

Cheese from Lancashire, England
Cow milk is set with starter and rennet, and the curd is broken and drained on tables until it is acid enough. Some curd is held for one or two days, then mixed with fresh curd, milled, salted at about 2.5 % and lightly pressed. The cheese is matured at least 3–4 weeks and sold mild (creamy) or mature (tasty).

Cow milk is set with starter and rennet, and the curd is broken and drained on tables until it is acid enough. Some curd is held for one or two days, then mixed with fresh curd, milled, salted at about 2.5 % and lightly pressed. The cheese is matured at least 3–4 weeks and sold mild (creamy) or mature (tasty). Made in 7 steps over 22 days – 23 days. The longest step, mature, takes at least 21 days (Defra 2023) and runs at 16 °C (Sanders G.P. 1953). Salt is 2.5 % (Defra 2023).

Lancashire mixes curds of different ages. Curd held one or two days is blended with the day's curd at milling, and the specification calls the correct blending of the curd crucial to the flavour and texture.
The specification says the milk is tested by the dairy laboratory and kept in bulk silos, and that some curd is held for 24 to 48 hours at ambient temperature before it is milled.
Every number is labelled with how it is known. How this atlas is made
Preston received its first royal charter for fairs in 1179, where north Lancashire farm cheese was sold. In the late 1800s Joseph Gornall of Garstang toured farms for the county council to teach one method; it was followed in the 1956 Ministry handbook. Before the Second World War over 200 farms made it; by 1948 only 22 did. Commission Regulation (EC) No 1107/96 of 12 June 1996 registered "Beacon Fell traditional Lancashire cheese" as a PDO.
