Find and Delete Image or Object

Post by bqxmprij »

Hello,

I have 100's of multi-page pdfs with an image (a logo) at the top of a single page in each multi-page pdf. I want to batch process them to remove that image. The image is always in the same place but the pdfs have different numbers of pages. Is this possible/how?

Hello, bqxmprij

At the moment I am sorry to say we do not have a function like this to offer. If it was text content you were looking for, the "find and redact" tool would be the ticket, but there is no current way to search for images in the editor.

As a bit of an extension, if there are not many other images in the document, you could use the content panel, and select images repeatedly, to reduce the amount of time it takes to investigate:
image.png
Clicking any content item in this list will bring the viewing area to look at that item, and then you can immediately press "Delete" to remove the image if it is one of the aforementioned items.

Kind regards,

Thank you. This is somewhat helpful. I notice the image always has the same tag Image [w:120; h:35]. Maybe that could be a way for the software to search for the image of concern. It would be great if it would search through all of these documents and keep jumping to the image.

Hello, bqxmprij

Maybe one day we could offer something of the like, but I would not expect it on a short schedule.
