I have tried and searched all but i didn't get answer for my requirement. Is it possible to create cleaned pdf file from ps2pdf command.

I know we can create pdf using this, My requirement is I have existing pdf and i am cropping into some area and i am creating ps file because i want to remove the other objects.

When i print the file, it will remove.

When i tried below command in my linux cent os 

ps2pdf -dCompatibilityLevel=1.4 -dPDFSETTINGS=/prepress a11.ps axd.pdf

Objects still remains.

Please help me out.

If any portion of the object is not clipped out, then Ghostscript is forced to include the entire object. It doesn't matter whether you output to PostScript or PDF, the same applies.
