"replace" Words In PDF File Using ITextSharp

Jun 6, 2012

I have been given a task to replace text within an existing PDF file. I played around with iTextSharp and is halfway.

I did come accross an excellent sample on the CodeBank by stanav, which I have been using.

Now, I know that you cannot replace the existing text on the file, because a PDF document is not a Word document as such. So my way of thinking is to draw a block around the existing text, and resave the file.

I need to find the precise x & y location of the text, and then I could draw the block(s) over it - that way, blanking the words out.

This is my

Replace Words In A Sentence?

May 14, 2012

I am trying to replace words in a sentence.

Code:
Public Function convert(ByVal sentence As String) As String
Dim conv As String = sentence
conv = Replace(conv, "I am ", "you are")
conv = Replace(conv, "I'm", "you are")

[code]....

This works to some degree but a word like "Mommy" becomes "Momyour". Or "mean" becomes "youan" How can I do this with full words only? I've tried putting spaces before and after within the quotes, but then any of the words that need changed at the beginning of a paragraph, don't change because there is no space at the beginning.

Replacing Words In Text File?

Apr 14, 2010

I am using the following code, but cannot get this to work. I have got it to work if the replacement is just of one word. So if the word test is replaced by mouse and the only thing in the file is the word test, it works.

How can I replace like this:
CH_IPVOD_filename.mpg > replace the CH_IPVOD_ with nothing for the result of:
filename.mpg
?

I would like to replace every instance of ch_ipvod_ with nothing.
Public Class Form4
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim fso, inputFile, outputFile
Dim str As String

C# - Counting The Frequency Of Specific Words In Text File?

Dec 23, 2010

I have a text file stored as a string variable. The text file is processed so that it only contains lowercase words and spaces. Now, say I have a static dictionary, which is just a list of specific words, and I want to count, from within the text file, the frequency of each word in the dictionary. For example:

Text file:

i love love vb development although i m a total newbie

Dictionary:

love, development, fire, stone

The output I'd like to see is something like the following, listing both the dictionary word and its count. If it makes coding simpler, it can also only list the dictionary word that appeared in the text.

WORD, COUNT

love, 2

development, 1

fire, 0
stone, 0

Using a regex (eg "w+") I can get all the word matches, but I have no clue how to get the counts that are also in the dictionary, so I'm stuck. Efficiency is crucial here since the dictionary is quite large (~100,000 words) and the text files are not small either (~200kb each).
