The pdf tool(shareware) put ad watermark on the pdf created. I should
be able to remove it after uncompressing the pdf with pdftk. Will
anyone tell me how?

Thanks in advance.

The PDF file format is fully (well almost ...) specified in the PDF spec:
http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/pdf/index_reference.html

pdftk also comes with a nice man page.

The rest is your business and neither related to pdftk nor to PDF. If authors of 
software that embeds such "watermarks" are clever, they make "your business" as 
hard as possible.

Wouldn't it be easier, and nicer too, just to pay for your shareware?

Hacking a PDF successfully imparts that deep joy and satisfaction that 
money can't buy.

Now tell me if that ain't so.

It is so, but to do so would be aiding and abetting a breach of copright.

Become a PostScript/PDF guru, then it's easy. But you will spend much more 
on labour than just paying for the software.
