Re: Replace text in PDF

This post is over 2 years old and I still cannot get the code to work. It is creating the new document but the text is not replaced. If I can get the evaluation to work I will buy the product, but not unless it does. Please advise...

using Aspose.Pdf.Kit;

public partial class _Default : System.Web.UI.Page
{
    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        PdfContentEditor pdfContent = new PdfContentEditor();
        try
        {
            pdfContent.BindPdf(Server.MapPath("template.pdf"));
            pdfContent.ReplaceText("the", "zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz");
            pdfContent.Save(Server.MapPath("new.pdf"));
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            Response.Write(ex);
        }
    }
}

Re: Replace text in PDF

Attachment: Present (inaccessible)

I got the replace text working, but it's putting a tab in the middle of the words. attached is the pdf file I am using

For example, I replace {DATE} with the date, but the PDF displayed it like this 7-1-2   009

PdfContentEditor pdfContent = new PdfContentEditor();
            try
            {
                pdfContent.bindPdf("old.pdf");
                pdfContent.replaceText("{DATE}", "7-1-2009");

                pdfContent.save("new.pdf");
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                ex.printStackTrace();
            }

Re: Replace text in PDF

I'm evaluating Aspose.PDF and trying to replace some text. But I get an Exception: "At most 4 elements (for any collection) can be viewed in evaluation mode."

How am I supposed to evaluate your component if I can't use basic methods? Isn't timebomb and watermark enough?
