Thanks for the reply. The example PDF can be found at http://www.nohupgaming.com/files/FirstPage.pdf and the code can be found at http://www.nohupgaming.com/files/Code_Snippet.txt. It pretty much follows the example for text replacement. I am replacing placeholder values such as {First_Recipient_Name} with the actual values in a post-processing update. As you will see in the file there are letters that work in one place and not others. The title is Test System Letter, the first recipient should be Sally Green and the last recipient should be Anthony Jarmon. Thanks in advance for any insight.

Could you provide that on a public download section? Would you have some sample code to replicate the issue you are describing?
