find and replace text in a pdf file

[Rangita Rajakumar]

Hi, 

I want to find and replace text in a pdf file. we have a regex to match the content to be replaced. i saw some solutions to draw a white box over it but that will not work since the content we are replacing is tags that will be recognized by another platform. we want to completely remove this from the page.

also im trying to use this

loadedDocument.FindText(listOfTags, out matchedTextbounds);

with these two packages

<PackageReference Include="Syncfusion.EJ2.PdfViewer.AspNet.Core" Version="27.2.2" />

<PackageReference Include="Syncfusion.Pdf.Net.Core" Version="27.2.2" />

Argument 1: cannot convert from 'System.Collections.Generic.List<string>' to 'string'CS1503

(local variable) List<string> listOfTags

im getting above error

Please let me know if anything is required

thanks,

Rangita
