Find Replace Text

Find is treated as a literal string, so punctuation such as periods or brackets does not act as a regular expression. Matching ignores case unless Match case is enabled. Whole words only checks that a match is not directly next to a letter, number or underscore. Replacement text is inserted literally; an empty replacement removes the matches.

Find: initially "apple". Replace with: initially "orange". Match case: initially off. Whole words only: initially off.

The entry screen accepts one UTF-8 TXT, CSV, JSON, XML, HTML or HTM file and opens the editor. Imports are text content, not a PDF or Word conversion. Review the source and choose Find Replace Text when ready. Editing or importing alone does not apply the transformation.

Result overview shows Replacements and the input-to-result character totals. The replacement count follows the literal search, case and whole-word settings; it is not estimated from the change in text length. Copy the reviewed text or use the download icon to save UTF-8 TXT. Editing the result hides the calculated details until you run the tool again. Continue to offers compatible next tools for the current text and their limits. Review the transferred text before running the next operation.
