import groupdocs.redaction.options as gro
import groupdocs.redaction.redactions as grr

def run():

    # Specify the redaction options - remove all annotations
    del_red = grr.DeleteAnnotationRedaction()

    # Load the document to be redacted
    with gr.Redactor("source.docx") as redactor:

        # Apply the redaction
        result = redactor.apply(del_red)
        
        # Save the redacted document
        so = gro.SaveOptions()
        so.add_suffix = True
        so.rasterize_to_pdf = False
        result_path = redactor.save(so)
