Text insertion/replacement is a feature often requested. It is unfortunately quite difficult to implement in a generic way.
The PDF is composed of a stream of instructions for rendering every glyph either in a block, separately, at relative or absolute position. Every time you draw something text on a page, you need to compute the updated position in the graphics stack, and for this you need to know the metrics of the font currently in use.
Since there is no font parsing implemented now, it cannot be done easily. The best solution would be to locate the text in the PDF instructions on the page, and modify them directly.
