SetPageBox + CapturePageEx + DrawCapturedPage

   I have documents from the bank.A single A4 page contains evidence of the two bank transfers.
One confirmation is on top and the other at the bottom of the page.
I need to separate these two documents contained on one page.

I thought it was easy and I used:
SetPageBox + CapturePageEx + DrawCapturedPage

It turned out, however, that after the creation of two separate documents, both new documents still contain the entire text of the original document (I mean, the whole text from the one A4 page).

Question what I was doing wrong.
Why cutting out part of the page (marked with a SetPageBox), copied the entire text on this page?

	Michal, The SetPageBox is only a logical box in the PDF format. It is always possible to have lins, boxes, text etc outside any of the page boxes. The page boxes are only use for clipping for viewing, printing and other specialized operations. So changing any of the PageBoxes will not alter the contents of the PDF in any way. There is currently nothing in the library that allows for deleting of pdf content from the content stream. Andrew.
