Remove a line of copy on every page of the pdf

[franzo]

I have a pdf with 60 pages in it, I need to remove a line of copy that is on every page.
Can this be done globally in pitstop so I do not have to delete page by page?

Could you explain a little more about this "line of copy"? Is it text, vector or bitmap? Is it in the same place and/or in equal size on each page?

Sorry for not being very clear, it is a line of text that falls in the same place on each page of the pdf

In that case you should be able to use an action like this:

Select all
Select text segments
Split in words
Select text by key phrase (Type in the exact text to be removed)
Remove selection

If you don't split in words all text containing the phrase you type in, will be removed. If you don't want to split all text in words you could do this instead:

Select all
Select text by key phrase (Type in the exact text to be removed)
Split in words
Select text by key phrase (Type in the exact text to be removed)
Remove selection
