Notes:
This function can be also used in order to delete
characters from the text contained in the specified Document, if the
value of the "newstring" parameter is an empty string (like "").
In this case, all Annotations objects contained in the specified
Document are searched: if any of them has a Span object in its Span
set whoose offsets span portion of the charactes to be deleted,
then this Span is eliminated from the Span set of the Annotation
object. Note that no Annotation objects are deleted from the Document,
although character deletion can result in Annotations with an empty
Span set. This function is equivelant to CDM_ByteSequenceReplace (C++ API).
