Delete All Images from PDF

Contents
[ ]

PDF documents often contain images for illustrations, branding, or decoration. There may be cases where you need to remove all images from a PDF, such as reducing file size, protecting sensitive visuals, or preparing a text-only version.

Using PdfContentEditor, you can programmatically remove all images from a PDF, ensuring the document only contains textual content. This example binds an input PDF, deletes all images, and saves the modified file.

  1. Create the PdfContentEditor object.
  2. Bind the input PDF.
  3. Delete All images.
  4. Save the updated Document.
import aspose.pdf.facades as pdf_facades
import sys
from os import path

sys.path.append(path.join(path.dirname(__file__), ".."))

from config import set_license, initialize_data_dir


def delete_all_image(infile, outfile):
    # Create PdfContentEditor object
    content_editor = pdf_facades.PdfContentEditor()
    # Bind document to PdfContentEditor
    content_editor.bind_pdf(infile)
    # Delete all images from the document
    content_editor.delete_image()
    # Save updated document
    content_editor.save(outfile)
