Hi @Santhoshi_Gvs

You can search any text in PDF but unfortunately you can’t replace any text in PDF but alternatively you can do one thing first convert PDF to text then replace the text then again convert it into PDF.
Hope it helps.

Best!!

Hi @Santhoshi_Gvs

  • You can read the PDF using Read pdf text or Read PDF Ocr text
  • Then Using Regex you can find the required text.
  • Can you give the pdf data sample so it will be better.
  • Then using Replace you can Replace that text.
  • Either you can Use Regex Replace or StringVaribale.Replace.
    Thanks & Regards
