Default How to replace all letters (but not numbers) in a Word file to letters 'x'?

Hi,

I need to replace all letters (but not numbers and not spaces, and not commas, and not dots) in a Word file to 'x' letters, but I want the formating and numbers and punctuation marks to be preserved.

How can I do it? I tried using wildcard *, but then there was a wall of continuous xxxxxxxxx without any spaces and also the formatting was lost.

The purpose of this is to show how many pages of text there are in the file without revealing that text and without losing the format, so that the number of pages remain correct. Also the dates present in the text should be preserved.
