You can call getStream() on the PDFormXObject and then change that one,
or are you asking something different?
I assume
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/75814243/pdfbox-how-to-replace-text-in-a-pdformxobject
is also from you?
Or is your question about replacing a form in the resources?

Dear all,
I'm struggling with replacing text within a Form. I detect the text I can
replace it, but putting it back to the form seems to be the hell on earth.
What was my approach?
I'm using MKL's PdfContentStreamEditor (Thanks for that it was a very useful
starting point)
Replacing content within the main content is quite easy with that (Replacing
all changed Tj with TJ by the way)
I think the purpose of doing nothing in the showForm overwrite is exactly to
avoid replacements in Forms.
So creating a new outstream for the form and putting my redactions there is
also done (text is found and replaced).
But how to replace the old form stream with the new one?
Thanks a lot,
Bernward
