Hello,

I am trying to delete all of the second level bookmarks from my pdf.

I am able to delete the first top level bookmark and it's child with the following code:

if (this.bookmarkRoot.children != null && this.bookmarkRoot.children.length > 0) {

      for (var i = 0; i < this.bookmarkRoot.children.length; i++) {

            this.bookmarkRoot.children.remove();

      }

   }

However, but i am not sure how to change the code to only delete the second level (children of the children?) book marks.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Here's a real simple way to remove all the top level bookmarks

this.bookmarkRoot,remove();

That's all you need.

Now for the 2nd level bookmarks, the code has to dig down into the second level

for (var i = 0; i < this.bookmarkRoot.children.length; i++)

{

     var bkmk = this.bookmarkRoot.children;

     if(bkmk.children)   bkmk.children.forEach(function(a){a.remove()});

}
