Hi!
I want to remove all form fields from a PDF-document. But everything I try does
not work.
Can you give me an advice?
Thanks and best regards
Lukas
Here are some attempts I tried but they did not work:
PDDocument pdDocument = PDDocument.load(new File("E:\\test.pdf"));
PDDocumentCatalog pdDocumentCatalog = pdDocument.getDocumentCatalog();
PDAcroForm pdAcroForm = pdDocumentCatalog.getAcroForm();
COSDictionary acroFormDict = pdAcroForm.getDictionary();
// pdDocumentCatalog.setAcroForm(null);
// acroFormDict.clear();
// COSArray fields = (COSArray)
acroFormDict.getDictionaryObject(COSName.FIELDS);
// fields.clear();
// acroFormDict.removeItem(COSName.FIELDS);
pdDocument.save("E:\\test-result.pdf");
