        Because the definition of "blank" can vary.

Is a page that contains an all white image blank? What about one where the content is outside the visible region? Or one with no standard contents, but with fields and annotations?

You need to first define what "blank" means in all aspects of what can be rendered onto a page by PDF....THEN you can start to determine how to programmatically find these things.

        So yes, it IS difficult....must it's also VERY well defined...
