Fujiyoshi Lab's PDF Tools

Fujiyoshi Lab's PDF Tools are simple processing tools for PDF files consisting of the following three tools: "PDFcontentEraser", "PDFfontChanger" and "PDFcontentExtracter."
They are developed in Java using Apache PDFBox library.

PDFcontentEraser is a tool to remove a certain type of elements in a PDF file. A PDF file mainly consists of characters, images, paths, and shadings. This tool can selectively erase all elements of a certain type.

PDFfontChanger is a tool to change a selection of fonts in a document. As a default setting, all fonts are replaced by "Universal Design Font for Digital Textbooks" (UD font), developed by Morisawa Inc.
