I need to send drawings to subs today but some pages show our in-house hazardous installation procedures and vendor-only sequences that must stay controlled. I don't know if redacting those pages now will slow procurement or if locking PDFs will prevent site access. Tell me which protection method to use immediately that keeps crews safe, satisfies owner transparency, and doesn't block the permit reviewer from doing their job.

Questions people ask

honest answers

No. Each page gives you a ready prompt you can paste into an AI assistant, plus the plain steps to do it yourself. Start with either — the goal is the finished job, not the tool.
