Hello PdfBox team.

Is there any good examples where I can check how to replace text or add
color to text or underline a text?
I found some examples like:
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/pdfbox/tags/1.5.0/pdfbox/src/main/java/org/apache/pdfbox/examples/pdmodel/ReplaceString.java
But as I see from Migration information "Why was the ReplaceText example
removed?" from here: https://pdfbox.apache.org/2.0/migration.html It is not
good practice. Can anybody help me with this? Thanks

The URL you mention explains why you can't easily replace text, and recommends to look at your file with PDFDebugger. Did you do that?

About the rest:
- add color to text: might be possible by inserting a color command into the content stream, if you know where.
- underline a text: you just draw a line at the correct position.

You have to understand that PDF isn't meant for editing. It isn't WORD or HTML. Any tool that offers to do "editing" will be very complex.
