Hi, 

A PDJ that I had processed using Adobe PDF Services API contains a watermark that interferes with the JSON output result. I want to get rid of the watermark using the API, instead of manually using Adobe Acrobat DC. Does PDF Services API support watermark removal?

 

Thanks

We don't have an API for Watermark removal at this time.

Watermarks are generally applied to prevent or make difficult repurposing of a document. So this seems to be working as expected. You should obtain unwatermarked materials.

Is there a way to prevent the API from extracting the watermark with the text of the contract? 

The example below was taken from the structuredData.json of an existing PDF I'm using that contains the watermark. As you can the text was extracted and the watermark was included in the text. The watermark is "1 KNOWLMAN A"

"for the land which exists1 KNOWLMAN A the party entitled to them"
