There are no direct activities available for the same

you might need to use your own code to do so

where most of the cases you might loose the orientation and pagelayout

cheers

You can follow approaach like,

  1. Read PDF using pdf activties.
  2. Replace text using regex with the required data, like
    Eg : ModifiedText = pdfText _ .Replace(“Tax Invoice” +Environment.NewLine+“Original For Recipient”,NewTitleArgument) _
    .Replace(“Invoice No” + Environment.NewLine + “Null”, “”) _
    .Replace(“Invoice No”, “”) _
    .Replace(“USD RATE”, “USD RATE”)
  3. Replace amount :
    ModifiedText = Regex.Replace(ModifiedText, “\s\d+.\d{2}”, “”)
  4. Create a .docx template
    Write text using “Write Text File” and then convert this docx to PDF
    This is more stable. Hope this design helps.
