Replacing text workaround?

Post by MattHelm »

Hey all,

so far I've used the editor mainly to make new pdfs and other smaller stuff.
Now, I've been asked if I can provide a translation of a document (pay stub), and because of the complex layout I'd ideally like to directly replace the words in language A with words in language B.
Using the search I've found that a direct replace feature isn't supported - what other options could I use?

Thanks for your help!

Hello MattHelm,

Welcome to our Forum.

Unfortunately, at the moment I'm not sure if we have a suitable option for that.

If you are using a translator that keeps the original formatting, you can paste back the text with that formatting kept, by using Paste as RTF text:

Also, please take a look at this article:
