Tilman Hausherr closed PDFBOX-5014.
-----------------------------------
    Resolution: Won't Do

There isn't any (except changing the content stream directly) and there won't 
be, because it is so extremely complex. PDF is not like HTML, sadly. See also 
this text:

[https://pdfbox.apache.org/2.0/migration.html#why-was-the-replacetext-example-removed%3F]

The nasty truth is that PDF isn't made for editing. There may be commercial 
products, e.g. by PDF-Tools or Callas or others.
