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.

Fish and seafood from Japan
Skipjack fillets are simmered, deboned and smoked over hardwood again and again until rock hard, which gives arabushi. For karebushi, the fillets are scraped and covered with Aspergillus mould, sun-dried and brushed clean, about four times over six months. The moulds break down fat and draw out the last water. Made in 6 steps over 6.3 months. The longest step, grow mould, sun-dry and brush off, about four times, takes 6 months (Takenaka S) and runs at 27 °C (Takenaka S). Aspergillus chevalieri and Aspergillus pseudoglaucus, A. amstelodami, A. ruber and A. montevidensis do most of the fermenting.

Katsuobushi is cooked and smoked before it is fermented, and the ferment is a dry surface mould, not a brine. Arabushi stops after smoking; only karebushi and honkarebushi are moulded.
Repeated smoking over wood leaves polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Because Japanese data showed lower levels were not achievable with good smoking practice, the EU set katsuobushi limits of 5.0 μg/kg benzo(a)pyrene and 30.0 μg/kg for the sum of four PAHs. Low water activity (0.62 in karebushi) keeps it shelf-stable.

Dried bonito appears in the Taiho Code (701) and Engishiki (905). The modern method began in Kii Province in 1674, and Mori Yahei brought it to Makurazaki in 1707.
