Fair, then reprinting won't help. I'd go ahead and come up with some Python script which exported all pages as png, edited that specific portion of every image and recompile it to a pdf. I'm not sure if there is a too which could already do that out-of-the-box.
Unfortunately then you lose things like text and links. I think the only real solution for my specific example (which to be clear, might not be OP's dilemma) is to crack and directly edit the binary data of the PDF file
What you mean by crack and directly edit?
