I have a few hundred PDFs that had some invalid fields generated. For example a date is appearing on the PDF that shouldn't be there. If it was just a couple documents, I would go into Edit PDF, find the field and delete it. The position of the field is constant for all PDF pages. Is there a way via Action Wizard or Java to delete certain fields in a PDF?

Run this code in the console window

Where "FieldName" is the name of the field you want to remove.
