How to: Extract Pages from a Document to Create a New One

Overview

With the Extract Pages feature, users can select a few pages from a document and save it as a new file. The Extract Pages feature can also be paired with The Watcher in CaseGuard Studio, which can automatically redact the extracted pages upon export. This gives users a higher level of control over the management of their documents throughout the redaction process.

A good use-case scenario is if your agency is in the process of hiring for a new role. Online job application management systems often automatically combine resumes, which can pose challenges for hiring managers. To review the resumes individually, the first step would be to separate the pages of each resume using the Extract Pages feature. Once the resumes are separated, hiring managers would then have the opportunity to redact personally identifiable information from them to implement anti-bias hiring; a process that can be automated with The Watcher.
