This is a custom scenario and we are afraid that the API does not offer any direct method or the functionality to achieve your requirements. However, we are trying to come up with a workaround and will inform you as soon as we have some. Please give us little time.

We tried to achieve your requirements using the code below but unfortunately, API was unable to recognize the text on color basis:

Document doc = new Document(dataDir + "bluetext.pdf");
foreach (Aspose.Pdf.Page page in doc.Pages)
{
 List<string> additionList = new List<string>();

 var AnnotationList = page.Annotations.Where(x => x.AnnotationType == AnnotationType.Link);
 if (AnnotationList.Any())
 {
  TextFragmentAbsorber textAbsorber = new TextFragmentAbsorber();
  page.Accept(textAbsorber);
  foreach(TextFragment fragment in textAbsorber.TextFragments)
  {
   if(fragment.TextState.ForegroundColor == Color.Blue)
   {
    foreach(var annot in AnnotationList)
    {
     if(fragment.Text.Contains(annot.Contents))
     {
      var link = annot.Hyperlink;
      var rect = fragment.Rectangle;

      page.Annotations.Delete(annot);

      LinkAnnotation linkannot = new LinkAnnotation(page, rect);
      linkannot.Hyperlink = link;
      page.Annotations.Add(linkannot);
     }
    }
   }
  }
 }
}
doc.Save(dataDir + "updated.pdf");

It looks like the API is behaving differently on different machines. On our end, it was not able to recognize the text on the basis of color. Nevertheless, can you please share the output PDF generated at your end?
