Replacing Text in PDF with PHP using Aspose.PDF REST API Changes Elements Background

Aspose.PDF Cloud Product Family
1

I want to replace text in a PDF document. However some background elements in the resulting PDF will be changed as well.

This is how it looks in the original file

And this is the result

Is there something I can do to only replace the text and keep the background as is?
The API is wonderfull and exactly what we need. However, the result is currently not usable this way.

Thanks for hints or help.

I use the PHP API and code as seen in this post: How to Find and Replace Text in PDF using PHP Laravel Throws Error

Thanks Tilal,
you will find the document here: https://www.karriere-kick.de/wp-content/uploads/kk-template.pdf
The main replacements are on page 1 for the following placeholders
[DATE]
[LOCATION]
[CITY]
[WITH]

There will be additional placeholders at page 13. I’ve already included [PRICE_S] there.

Thanks a lot for your support.

Thanks for your inquiry. We have fixed the issue in base API Aspose.PDF for .NET and hopefully, if everything works as per plan then the fix will be available in Aspose.PDF Cloud 22.5 release, May 2022.
