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.

Rice or millet is cooked, mixed with murcha starter and fermented for one to several weeks into a jaanr mash, which is then distilled in a stack of three pots. The cold water in the top pot is changed several times, and each change gives one draw (pani) of clear spirit of roughly 20–40 % alcohol. Made in 3 steps over 7 days – 25 days. The longest step, ferment into jaanr, takes 7–25 days (Shrivastava K 2012). The jaanr's yeasts does most of the fermenting.

Raksi is distilled; the jaanr it comes from is drunk as a mild beer. Its still is a local three-pot stack, and the strength is set by how many changes of cooling water the maker collects.
Distilling concentrates both alcohol and other volatile compounds. In the Rolpa lab method the first 20 ml of each run was thrown away to reduce unwanted compounds; methods differ by maker.
Every number is labelled with how it is known. How this atlas is made
Raksi is a household spirit across the Himalayas. In a 2024 survey in Rolpa, Nepal, it was made mostly by women, and sellers reported strong local demand.
