`pdfReplacePageTextEx`

Unicode-capable sibling of

Category	Positional page-text replacement
Note	same "first-found, replace-everywhere" behavior as `pdfReplacePageText`

Purpose — Unicode-capable sibling of pdfReplacePageText.

Description — ExA behaves identically to the non-Ex form. ExW adds font-aware re-encoding: the replacement text is re-encoded into the matched run's own font's show-string codes (2-byte Identity-H GIDs for embedded TrueType, UTF-16BE for a UCS2 CID font, WinAnsi bytes for a simple font) — the same mechanism documented for psrReplaceSelText. Stack is, again, accepted but not read by either variant.

Declarations

BOOL32 __stdcall pdfReplacePageTextExA(PPDF IPDF, const char* NewText, TPDFStack* Stack);
BOOL32 __stdcall pdfReplacePageTextExW(PPDF IPDF, const wchar_t* NewText, TPDFStack* Stack);

Delphi

function pdfReplacePageTextExA(const IPDF: PPDF; const NewText: PAnsiChar; var Stack: TPDFStack): LongBool; stdcall; external 'LumasPdf.dll';
function pdfReplacePageTextExW(const IPDF: PPDF; const NewText: PWideChar; var Stack: TPDFStack): LongBool; stdcall; external 'LumasPdf.dll';

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`IPDF`	`PPDF`	Instance handle with an active page.
`NewText`	string	Replacement text.
`Stack`	`TPDFStack*`	Accepted but not read.

Return value — TRUE on at least one substitution; FALSE otherwise.
