Removing ICC- tags from a pdf document

[1px]

Hi.

I can't remove a bunch of ICC- tags from a pdf document. I use the command `exiftool -All= -icc_profile= book.pdf` but it doesn't work — the document stay unchanged. Here's the list of ICC- tags I want to remove.

How can I tackle the problem?

Thanks

ExifTool currently has read-only support for ICC in PDF.  (see this table for support levels for each file type)
