We remove the current page from the document.

document.RemoveChild(page);

Step 4: Append Previous Page Version

Now, we append the previous page version to the document.

document.AppendChildLast(previousPageVersion);

Step 5: Save the Document

Finally, we save the modified document.

document.Save(dataDir + "RollBackRevisions_out.one");
