Sorry, I replayed by mail, now I see I should reply in this form
Here the file with the layer.
I tried to remove the layer using
page.getLayers().remove(layer);
doc.save(“name.pdf”);
I also tryed
page.setLayers(new ArrayList());.
With the same result.

We are asking for a sample PDF file, not the code. You can use upload button in the post editor to upload you sample file that you are using at your side. This would help us testing the scenario accordingly. uploadfile.png (7.0 KB)

I investigated a little bit.
The document I sent You contains the layer and I see it from Acrobat Reader.
When I try to read it using page.getLayers() I get null.
The layer is on page 13.
Is it a bug ?
