Hi, I'm new here and I've just discovered PDFBox. My experience with coding is fairly basic.
Based on a sample code I found here, http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6831194/how-can-i-remove-all-images-drawi ngs-from-a-pdf-file-and-leave-text-only-in-java It seems that it should work for my purpose; that is to remove all images from a PDF whilst preserving formatting. Basically I plan to print a large document in black and white on a laser printer without pictures, and then run it through a colour inkjet for the pictures. Could anyone help me figure out why the code in the link above does not work? It creates the 'stripped' file and throws no exceptions but all the images are still within. I've found another PDFBox code that extract images and saves it to file which works for all individual pictures in the document, so I am certain the PDF is formatted correctly with pictures embedded within it. Any help would be much appreciated. Regards, Nicholas Tiong
