Dear Fahad,

Thanks for your replay
I attached the Sample pdf and there is the code

static void Main(string[] args)
{
Aspose.Pdf.License license = new Aspose.Pdf.License();
license.SetLicense(“Aspose.Pdf.lic”);
// The path to the documents directory.
string dataDir = “D:\Production Softwares\Tasks\PDF Replace\”;

// Open document
Document pdfDocument = new Document(dataDir + “input.pdf”);

// Create TextAbsorber object to find all instances of the input search phrase
TextFragmentAbsorber textFragmentAbsorber = new TextFragmentAbsorber(“xxxxxxxxxx”);
// Accept the absorber for all the pages
pdfDocument.Pages.Accept(textFragmentAbsorber);
// Get the extracted text fragments
TextFragmentCollection textFragmentCollection = textFragmentAbsorber.TextFragments;
if (textFragmentCollection.Count > 0)
{
Console.WriteLine(“”);
// Get first occurance of text and replace
TextFragment textFragment = textFragmentCollection[1];
// Update text and other properties
textFragment.Text = “Published”;

dataDir = dataDir + “4801784_out.pdf”;
pdfDocument.Save(dataDir);

Console.WriteLine("\nText replaced successfully.\nFile saved at " + dataDir);
}
}
