Search for and change specific occurrences of characters, words, groups of words, or text formatted a certain way.

You can also search for and replace special characters such as symbols, markers, and white space characters. Wildcard
options help to broaden your search.

GREP

Use advanced, pattern-based search techniques to search for and replace text and formatting.

Glyph

Search for and replace glyphs using Unicode or GID/CID values, especially useful to search for and replace

glyphs in Asian languages.

Object

Search for and replace formatting effects and attributes in objects and frames. For example, you can find objects

with a 4-pt stroke and replace the stroke with a drop shadow.

Find and change text

If you want to list, find, and replace fonts in your document, you might want to use the Find Font command instead of
the Find/Change command.
