When you download files, you first select whether to download files with redacted content or files to use for review. You then select any formatting options.

In redacted files, the redacted values are covered by a colored box, and can optionally include the reference codes. You can add a watermark, a footer, and page numbers.

When you download all of the files, you can combine the files into a single PDF.
