Resource redaction annotation fills black rectangle with fixed position (used if you want to hide some text) like shown at the picture below. 

There is an ability to specify the next properties for ResourcesRedactionAnnotation type:

• Box – defines annotation position at document page;

Follow these steps to add Resource redaction annotation to document:

• Instantiate Annotator object with input document path or stream;
• Instantiate ResourceRedactionAnnotation object with desired properties (position, page number, etc);
• Call Add method and pass ResourceRedactionAnnotation object;
• Call Save method with resultant document path or stream.

The following code demonstrates how to add ResourcesRedactionAnnotation to the document:

//Add resource redaction annotation to the document from local disk
using (Annotator annotator = new Annotator("input.pdf"))
{
	ResourcesRedactionAnnotation resourcesRedaction = new ResourcesRedactionAnnotation
    {
    	Box = new Rectangle(100, 100, 100, 100),
        CreatedOn = DateTime.Now,
        Message = "This is resources redaction annotation",
        PageNumber = 0,
        Replies = new List<Reply>
        {
        	new Reply
            {
            	Comment = "First comment",
                RepliedOn = DateTime.Now
            },
            new Reply
            {
            	Comment = "Second comment",
                RepliedOn = DateTime.Now
            }
        }
   };
   annotator.Add(resourcesRedaction);
   annotator.Save("result.pdf");
}
