Getting started

  1. Open a Google Doc and choose Extensions → Replice → Open Replice.
  2. Type in Find. The match count updates as you type.
  3. Press Enter (or the down arrow) to highlight the next match, Shift+Enter for the previous one.
  4. Type in Replace with, then click Replace (this match) or Replace all.

Before Replace all (and before running a rule set) the add-on shows how many matches will change and asks you to confirm.

To undo, press Ctrl+Z (⌘Z on Mac). Each replacement is its own edit, so undoing a large Replace all can take several presses; File → Version history restores the document as it was before in one step.

Options

  • Match case — Apple does not match apple.
  • Whole word — cat does not match catalog.
  • Regex — JavaScript regular expressions. In Replace with, $1 inserts a captured group, $& the whole match, $<name> a named group, $$ a dollar sign, and \n a line break.
  • Keep case — replacing colour with color turns Colour into Color and COLOUR into COLOR.

Pro ($12, one-time)

Pro adds Review all matches first (up to 500 at a time; untick the ones to keep, and only the listed rows are replaced), Rule sets (save lists of find → replace rules and run them in one pass), searching in selection, headers, footers, footnotes and all tabs, and CSV import/export.

CSV columns: find, replace, match_case, whole_word, regex, preserve_case, enabled (yes/no). A header row is optional.

Activate: open Settings (gear tab) → paste the key from your Payhip receipt email → Activate.

Common questions

  • Why is a match not found? Searches run inside one paragraph at a time; a match cannot cross a paragraph break. Text inside drawings, equations and smart chips is skipped.
  • Does it keep formatting? The new text gets the character formatting (font, size, colour, bold, italic, link) of the first character of the text it replaces. Paragraph styles are not changed. If a single match mixes several formats, the whole replacement takes the first character's formatting.
  • Is there a limit? No usage limits. As a safety ceiling, one search or Replace all handles up to 50,000 matches; on a bigger job, run it again. The Pro review list shows up to 500 matches at a time, and Replace selected changes only the rows shown in the list.
  • Does my text leave Google Docs? No. See the privacy policy.
  • Refunds: within 30 days, see the terms.
