Find and replace text?

See original GitHub issue

Reading through the docs… can’t seem to find answer to this

Is there a way to find and replace text?

Here is the use case:

  • I need to generate a lot of PDFs from a template
  • The only thing that changes in each template is a url that is in several places throughout the PDF
  • Is there a way to add a tag like <URL-REPLACEMENT> to the template and then use pdf-lib to find and replace the tag with the actual url?

thanks!
