ghostscript/postscript - How to remove layers by coordinates












0














I have a boundary file (pdftotext -bbox -bbox-layout [filename])
So, could I remove all block layers by a coordinate? If yes, how can I do it? (native or by java api)

  • You probably can't do it with Ghostscript, you certainly can't do it with PostScript (PDF is not PostScript). You should be more explicit about what you consider to be a 'layer', the PDF specification doesn't mention anything by the name of 'layer', and there are several different kinds of object called layers by users. An example file would be helpful.
