Replace text with formatted Run

The following example shows you how to replace text with a formatted Run. Unlike the simple text replace method, this allows you to apply formatting such as bold, italic, color, and font size to the replacement text.

import com.independentsoft.office.ExtendedBoolean;
import com.independentsoft.office.word.Color;
import com.independentsoft.office.word.Run;
import com.independentsoft.office.word.WordDocument;

public class Example {

    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        try
        {
            WordDocument doc = new WordDocument("c:\\test\\input.docx");

            Run replacementRun = new Run("REPLACED TEXT");
            replacementRun.setBold(ExtendedBoolean.TRUE);
            replacementRun.setColor(new Color("FF0000"));
            replacementRun.setFontSize(16);

            doc.replace("old text", replacementRun);

            doc.save("c:\\test\\output.docx", true);
        }
        catch (Exception e)
        {
            System.out.println(e.getMessage());
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}
