Redaction not applied when save to png

[CH-Tam]

I have a page of pdf file with an unwanted image. I used page.apply_redactions(graphics=0) and the image is visually disappeared (I think it is still in the pdf source file, but just covered with a white/transparent rectangle?)

After that I use get_pixmap and save to save the page into png file, yet the image re-appeared. Is there any way that I can save the pdf file to image while applying the redactions?

You seem to confuse the terms "image" and "graphics".
Image refers to embedded images, while graphics are vector graphics. Two completely different things.
To remove an image, you must specify PDF_REDACT_IMAGE_REMOVE when applying redactions: page.apply_redactions(images=fitz.PDF_REDACT_IMAGE_REMOVE).
