Search-replace a font using JavaScript

Hi

 

I need to search-replace a font in many PDF files, it doesn't matter if the result is visually disastrous as it is in order to recover data in a later process.

 

These text and fonts are in the layout of the file, I can't find anything related in the JS API reference nor in the Preflight fixups of Acrobat Pro.

 

Is this possible?

No. JS has no ability to change the fonts (or even find out what they are!) of the static text in the file.
