How to find and replace text in Word documents

  1. Add one or more Word files (.docx).
  2. Type your replacements, one per line as old => new, and set case and whole-word matching.
  3. Click Replace and download the updated documents.

A new company name, a changed address, a new financial year, a bank account to correct: updating dozens of Word templates (contracts, quotes, certificates, letters) one by one takes ages. This tool applies the same list of replacements to all your files in one go.

Write one rule per line, such as “ACME Ltd => Globex SA” or “2024 => 2025”. Leave the right side empty to delete a piece of text. Replacements reach the body, tables, headers, footers and notes, while the original font, bold and colors are kept.

Tick “Case sensitive” to treat “Total” and “total” differently, and “Whole words only” to avoid changing a word inside a longer one (replace “VAT” without touching “VATs”). Always skim the result, especially when replacing short numbers.

Up to 50 files of 300 MB each; everything is processed in memory and deleted after 30 minutes.
