Question
How do you do a search and replace of text in Adobe Acrobat? Join or Log In to answer.
in adobe acrobat, editing text requires the professional (read: not free) version. you can try other PDF readers like Foxit Reader, but editing will leave a mark (foxit logo in corner) on your document for printing.

Although not intendeed for this purpose, you can use the new Redaction features in Acrobat 8 to search and redact information

You can change the Redaction properties to not show a redaction mark and replace the redacted information with custom text

You'll need to experiment a little and find the right font and font attributes to match as closely as possible your original text
