Walk me through what exactly to remove versus what to anonymise, how to check the PDF metadata so nothing leaks, and the one final step to confirm the package is vendor-safe.

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.
