Hi Leonard, Adobe's Illustrator is a tool to create images. Now when an image is created using Illustrator it can either be a snapshot that is simply embedded there or it can be a manually created image for example if we are creating a flower we will manually first create the stem(Object 1) then the petals individually(5 objects assuming 5 petals) and so on. So this image of a flower is made up of several such objects. When we view the PDF structure let's say on any desktop utility e.g. jPDF, the utility recognizes these images as im0, im1, im2....and so but is unable to tell us what objects make what image. Hence, through iText we are unable to identify any particular image on any page and so we can't remove it.
Hope I am clear in explaining myself. Thanx!

I also don't know what you mean by "{combination of small-2 objects". Can you provide some sample(s) and explantation?
