menteith commented on PDFBOX-5854:
----------------------------------
No particular reason. Why PDFBox allows for removing ID yet it doesn't remove
it? Is there any way to get rid of it? The pdf I have is in copyright. I could
send it to a personal email but I don't feel comfortable sharing it to anyone.

> Project: PDFBox
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Writing
> Affects Versions: 3.0.2 PDFBox
> Reporter: menteith
> Priority: Minor
>
> I tried to remove ID from a PDF file using PDFBox. Any of my attemps haven't
> resulted in ID being removed. Please have a look how I tried to do so:
> {{if ( document.getDocument().getDocumentID() != null ) {}}
> {{// 1. doesn't work}}
> {{document.getDocument().setDocumentID(null);}}
> {{//2. doesn't work either}}
> {{document.getDocument().getTrailer().removeItem(COSName.ID);}}
> {{// 3. doesn't work}}
> {{final COSDictionary newTrailer = document.getDocument().getTrailer();}}
> {{newTrailer.removeItem(COSName.ENCRYPT);}}
> {{newTrailer.removeItem(COSName.ID);}}
> {{document.getDocument().setTrailer(newTrailer);}}
> {{// 4. doesn't work}}
> {{final COSArray documentID = document.getDocument().getDocumentID();}}
> {{documentID.clear();}}
> {{document.getDocument().setDocumentID(documentID);}}
> {{}}}
> Who I can send a source PDF to?
