How about exporting figures _without_ texts and _adding_ annotation with
TikZ, as done in the attached example? In this way, no "text
replacements" are necessary.

Or is it too painful to adjust the position of the texts at LaTeX level,
not at the time of creation of figure?

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{tikz}

\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}
  \node (figure) at (0,0) {\includegraphics[width=10cm]{tiger.pdf}};
  \node at (figure.east) {foo};
  \node at (figure.north west) {\(x^{2}+y^{2}=z^{2}\)};
  \path (figure) ++(-2,-1) node[fill=white] {\Large\(E=mc^{2}\)};
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}
