Buscar y reemplazar en un PDF

Busca una palabra o una frase y sustituye cada aparición en el documento.

· RetypePDF

La búsqueda actúa sobre el texto dentro de cada línea, no solo sobre líneas enteras: sustituir el nombre de una empresa en mitad de una frase funciona como esperas. Se recorren todas las páginas.

Las apariciones encontradas y las realmente sustituidas se cuentan por separado. Pueden diferir: si la tipografía incrustada no sabe dibujar un carácter del texto nuevo, RetypePDF rechaza esa sustitución en lugar de imprimir recuadros vacíos — y te dice qué caracteres faltan.

How it works

  1. Open your PDF. It loads straight into the browser. No upload, no queue, no account.
  2. Click the line you want to change. Every editable line is detected and clickable. Type the new text over it.
  3. Download. The result is a normal PDF — selectable text, no watermark, same file size.

Real text editing, not a white box

Most free online PDF editors fake it. They draw a white rectangle over the words you wanted to change and print new text on top. It looks fine until you put it on a coloured background, or until somebody selects the text and finds the original wording still sitting underneath.

RetypePDF rewrites the text operators inside the PDF itself. The old words are genuinely gone — not hidden, not covered. The page stays vector text you can search and select, and the file does not balloon in size.

White-box editors
  • Original text still extractable
  • Visible patch on shaded backgrounds
  • Text becomes unsearchable
  • File grows
RetypePDF
  • Old text actually removed
  • No patch, any background
  • Stays selectable and searchable
  • Size essentially unchanged

Your file never leaves your device

Editing runs entirely in your browser. The PDF is not uploaded, not stored on a server, and not readable by us — which matters, because the documents people actually need to fix are invoices, contracts, payslips and statements. The only thing our server ever receives is a count of how many documents you processed, so your daily allowance can be tracked.

There is exactly one exception, and you control it: if a result comes out wrong you can send us a problem report. That never happens automatically. Reports carry only a technical summary by default — no text from your document — and including the document itself is a separate box you tick each time.

Questions

¿Se puede buscar y reemplazar en todo un PDF?

Sí. La búsqueda recorre todas las páginas y actúa también dentro de las líneas: sustituir el nombre de una empresa en mitad de una frase funciona como esperas.

¿Por qué se reemplazaron menos apariciones de las encontradas?

Porque algunas sustituciones se rechazaron en lugar de hacerse mal. Si la tipografía no sabe dibujar un carácter del texto nuevo, RetypePDF señala la coincidencia pero no escribe — y te dice qué caracteres faltan. La alternativa serían recuadros vacíos que aún se copian como letras correctas.

¿La búsqueda distingue mayúsculas y minúsculas?

Por defecto sí, y una opción «ignorar mayúsculas» lo desactiva. El ajuste se guarda con el modelo de reemplazo, para que aplicar un modelo dé siempre el mismo resultado.

Free. 20 documents a day, no account, no watermark — and if you need more, we ask for a sentence of feedback rather than a payment.

Batch find & replace

Define the replacements once, apply them to every document. Nothing is uploaded — each file is processed in this browser.

    Did this come out right?

    Would you say that in a sentence? This tool is free and has no marketing budget, so a line from someone who actually used it is worth more than anything we could write.

    Nothing is offered in exchange — no credits, no discount. You get a reference you can use to have it removed at any time.
