Word Batch Replacer

Word Batch Replacer is an intuitive and easy to use software that enables you to search and replace a specific phrase within multiple documents at the same time. You simply need to set a rule describing the phrase you wish to find and its replacement.

Batch processing files

The software supports multiple types of text files, as well as other Office documents, such as DOC, DOCX, PPT, XLS, RTF, TXT. It is designed to scan their contents and identify the key phrases, then replace them with the indicated word or collocation. You may also change hyperlinks.
Simply load the documents you wish to process and lay down a rule or a set of rules, describing the replacement process. As the searching begins, the software displays a dialog box that enables you to monitor the progress.

Customize processing options

The software can scan an entire document, including headers, footers, endnotes or footnotes, even text boxes and URLs. Alternatively, if you know these elements cannot contain your query, you may set the software to only scan the main body of the text, and make the process quicker.
Other options, such as case-sensitive search, look for whole words only or highlight the area that was replaced, can easily be enabled or disabled.

Elements subjected to change

The content of a text file is, by default the main subject of the replacement process, but you may extend the modification to the document’s title, author, company, category or key words.
Another reliable feature of Word Batch Replacer is its capacity of creating file backups before processing them. This is highly useful, in case you change your mind about the replaced phrases.

Conclusion

Word Batch Replacer is a useful tool if you wish to replace a specific word or phrase from multiple documents, in a short time. It is capable of processing batches of documents, in numerous formats, as long as they are editable text files. Your contribution requires only that you load the documents and set the replacing rules, while the rest of the process is carried on by the application.
