Abstract
A method for redacting related content in a document by executing a redaction manager process that searches for related content in at least one document and then provides a means for selecting instances of the content for redaction. The related content may include properties such as, for example, identical instances of a text string, instances of related graphics, instances of numeric values and/or numeric patterns, proper names, phone numbers, addresses and similar searchable data properties. Upon searching and retrieving the desired data, the redaction manager process displays a listing of the instances of content which affords a user the ability to select which particular instances of content to redact within the document.
