About This Feature
Overview
Find and Replace is a text editing feature in WPS Presentation on Windows. It helps you locate specific text, replace text in batches, and standardize fonts across a presentation.
Core tasks include:
- Find text: Open the find entry from the Home tab or use Ctrl+F to locate content quickly.
- Replace text: Enter the text to find and the replacement text, then replace items one by one or all at once.
- Replace fonts: Use the Replace Font entry to standardize font styles across slides.
This feature is useful for updating repeated wording, changing brand names, cleaning up training decks, and making slide fonts consistent.

Compare with Alternatives
| Dimension | WPS | Microsoft | Notion | Adobe | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capability Summary | Supports finding text, replacing text, and replacing fonts in presentations, which is useful for local batch edits in slide files. | Microsoft Word officially supports find, replace, match case, and additional advanced find-and-replace options. | Google Docs Editors officially support find and replace in documents, spreadsheets, and presentations, and some scenarios include regular expressions. | Notion officially documents search-and-replace updates through its API for page markdown content, which is aimed at developer and automation workflows. | Adobe Acrobat officially supports searching text in the current PDF and replacing text through the Find toolbar one instance at a time. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: WPS provides find, replace, and replace font entries directly in the presentation editing interface, which fits slide editing and formatting cleanup workflows. | Compared with WPS: the official page focuses on Word document text replacement and advanced options rather than a presentation-focused workflow on the same page. | Compared with WPS: it covers Docs, Sheets, and Slides with a web-based workflow, while WPS keeps the slide editing actions in the desktop presentation interface. | Compared with WPS: it is better suited to API-based content updates than to a built-in replace panel for everyday presentation editing. | Compared with WPS: Acrobat can replace text in a PDF, but the official help describes replacement mainly one occurrence at a time in the current file. |

Overall Conclusion
If your main task is editing presentations on Windows, WPS keeps find, replace, and replace font actions close to the slide editing workflow. Other products may be more suitable for advanced document replacement, browser-based collaboration, or API-driven content updates.
