If page contains header and footer, it cannot be detected as an empty or blank page. As far as removing a page is concerned, you can remove it using Aspose.PDF for Java. In case of any further assistance, please feel free to let us know.

Hi,

Thank You for your response. So the syntax would be directly to use the delete() right?

doc.getPages().delete(16);

Something like this?

So the pdf has header and footer and the rest of the page is blank. So can we find that?

Thanks,
Aditya

Yes, your understanding is correct.

As shared earlier, a page cannot be detected as blank if it has a header and footer because header/footer is not a separate entity in the PDF. Instead, they are treated as the content of the page.
