Hi, can you modify the code that way, that the new file ext to the text contains the orginal page settings and structur of the orginal pdf. Like the text is in the same place where it was in the orginal pdf

Hi, came across ur video after multiple failed attempts of converting my file. Can I somehow ignore the Headers and footers. Also, I have bulletins in my documents and some of the bulletins are on the next page; how do I take care of that?
