Hi, I refered to the PDF Ref document u mentioned earlier. According to that the following represents one of the inline images that i wish to get rid off. I am using PDFStreamParser to read the tokens and skip the following tokens while retaining other tokens. I thought this would remove the inline images. But the entire content on the page is disappearing.
q 79.56 0 0 27 18 687 cm BI /CS/R14 /W 106 /H 36 /BPC 8 /F/Fl ID <.....Some Stream.....> EI Q q 90 0 0 27 97.56 687 cm /R15 Do Q q 90 0 0 27 187.56 687 cm /R15 Do Q q 90 0 0 27 277.56 687 cm /R15 Do Q q 90 0 0 27 367.56 687 cm /R15 Do Q Some questions that I have: 1. Is PDFStreamParser the one that can deal with this problem? 2. Does "q...cm...BI....EI...Q" and "q...cm...R15...Do" represent the two sections responsible for drawing inline images?
