No, but you can extract Actual Text with
its coordinates and figure out what to discard.
Note that there are two things that look
like text but are not characters-in-the-content-stream:
1) Images with text. You need OCR.
2) Paths (lines) in the shape of
characters. You need OCR.
In general, you need OCR. Your specific
case may be able to use the PdfContentStreamProcessor et al. Check out the
source
for SimpleTextExtractingPdfContentStreamProcessor, and get coordinates as well.

Subject: [iText-questions] Data
mining with iTextSharp
Hello all,
Is it possible to extract text from specific region from pdf. What I mean is
can we define co-ordinates of a rectangle or through some other way and than
extract text from that specific region ?
Regards,
Zain
