	Hi Russel, you're here in the community since 2011 now ... ? If you wanna change/replace normal text content it's not possible with QuickPDF. You can try to extract textcontent, keep the position data and font properties in mind and try to overwrite these places perhaps with color white and then write new content on the same place. This you can do but it's a very experimental way and the result won't look very proper i fear. You CAN do it with QuickPDF but you SHOULD NOT do it ;-) Cheers, Ingo
	Cheers, Ingo

	Thanks Ingo yes, 2011. Most of the work we do is based on using fields as place holders and then drawing images/text to the canvas. I didn't think that this was possible but just wanted to check I hadn't missed something obvious. Thanks Russell
