Questions
Does it find text in scanned pages?
No. A scan is a picture of text, so there are no letters to replace. The tool tells you when the word appears in a scan’s hidden text layer; use Edit PDF to retype that line, or make the scan searchable first.
Why was a line not found?
Lines are searched one at a time, so a phrase that runs from one line to the next is not matched. Search for one part of it, or use Edit PDF.
Can I change the font of the replaced lines?
Yes. Pick any of the 28 fonts and each replaced line is written in it. If a font does not have a letter you typed (for example Hindi letters in a Latin font), that line is left unchanged and the result says so.
