Yes, the journalists did the redactions. The metadata timestamps in one of the documents show that the versions were created three weeks before the publication.

And to be honest, the journalists generally have done a great work on pretty much in all the other published PDFs. We've went through hundreds and hundreds of the published documents, and these two documents were pretty much the only ones which had metadata leak by a mistake revealing something significant (there are other documents as well with metadata leaks/failed redactions, but nothing huge). Our next part will be a technical deep-dive on PDF forensic/metadata analysis we've done.
