One option would be to import the given page and insert it into the new document with some appropriate clipping path or soft mask active. This would of course insert the rest of the page into the new document, too. It simply would not be visible.

Therefore, I can only point towards the PDF specification for details. -- View this message in context: http://itext-general.2136553.n4.nabble.com/how-to-copy-certain-page-region-from-pdf-using-itext-tp4656262p4656264.html Sent from the iText - General mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
