Message : I downloaded the latest evaluation version. I tried to use ReplaceText and my Text is removed and nothing is added. Another result displayed the text but added additional characters and changed the spacing. I tried converting the pdf to v5, 6, 7 and even 4 nothing worked.

Email me and I send the code and the same files.

I created a one word pdf document. I figured it was the simplest case to use ReplaceText. The text was removed but the document was blank. Another document, replaced the text but shifted the characters and entered garbage characters.

My code:
string file = Server.MapPath("TEST.pdf");
string dest = Server.MapPath(".") + "\\TEST1.pdf";
OutputTextDebug("DEST: " + dest);
OutputTextDebug("FILE: " + file);
OutputTextDebug("File Exist: " + File.Exists(file).ToString());
PdfContentEditor editor = new PdfContentEditor();
editor.BindPdf(file);
editor.ReplaceText("**REPLACETEXT**", "ANDREW");
editor.Save(dest);

I can not get ReplaceText to work on any pdf documents. I doubt I purchase your product without this feature.
