> With the clasees TextNavigation and TextSelection, user can generation a report base on some templates very easily. The method TextSelection.replaceWith(String) provides an easy way to replace
> locate and replace placeholders in a document by a concrete text. However that replacement should not only be limited to simple text strings but also for more complex pieces of content.
> So proposal to add new replaceWith method in TextSelection.java
> 1. public void replaceWith(Table table)
> The text represented by the TextSelection object should be replaced by the table
> provided. If the TextSelection object does not contain a paragraph of its own, but rather is part of a paragraph, then this paragraph should be split. that mean the exist paragraph split to two new paragraphs,the table be insert between these two new paragraphs.
> 2.public void replaceWith(Image image)
> The text represented by the TextSelection object should be replaced by an image. The image needs to replace the TextSelection exactly in-place, that means: if positioned within the flow of a text paragraph, the replacement should be in that very position and not at the beginning, or end of the enclosing paragraph.
> 3.public void replaceWith(Paragraph p)
> The text represented by the TextSelection object should be replaced by a paragraph. If the replacement is within a paragraph, it may be required to split that paragraph.  that mean the exist paragraph split to two new paragraphs,the Paragraph be insert between these two new paragraphs.
> 4.public void replaceWith(TextDocument document)
> Alike the replacement of a table, it should be possible to replace the TextSelection with the content of a complete documents. This may require that the paragraph where the replacement takes place needs to be split into two paragraphs first.
> 5.public void replaceWith(Field field)
> The text represented by the TextSelection object should be replaced by the field provided.
