What the widget measures

The panel counts what leaves your browser after you choose a file. The site's own scripts and fonts load like any web page — what you will never see is a request carrying your PDF. Check it here, or open your browser's Network tab and see for yourself.

The number is scoped to request bodies after you choose a document. App assets such as JavaScript, WASM, and fonts can still load; those are not your PDF bytes.

Verify it yourself
  1. Open DevTools, then the Network tab.
  2. Choose a PDF in the tool and complete the action.
  3. Filter for fetch or XHR requests; document processing should not create a request carrying your file.

Stronger check: load the tool page first, then disconnect from the network before choosing the file. Already-loaded tool code can continue processing locally, but a first visit still needs the site assets.

Steps

How to do it in Lemmafour

  1. Choose Redact the statement locally.
  2. Open the bank statement PDF.
  3. Use Secure redaction in text or area mode.
  4. Redact full account numbers, routing details, irrelevant transactions, addresses, and reference codes.
  5. Apply redactions, export, and search/select text in the output to check the removed areas.

Expert note

Statement tables need repeated checks

Financial PDFs often repeat the account number in page headers, transaction descriptions, footer references, and embedded statement metadata. If you split the statement first, each output must still be checked because repeated headers can survive on every page. Keep the unredacted original separate from the shared copy.

FAQ

Questions people ask before using this tool

Can I leave the balance visible?

Yes, if the recipient needs it. Redact only unnecessary details so the document still supports the request.

Should I split before redacting?

Split first if the recipient needs only some pages, then redact the smaller output.

Does Lemmafour store my statement online?

No. Recent outputs may stay in this browser until cleared, but they are not uploaded for processing.
