What does 'acquaintance' mean in this sentence?

Tomorrow he will write to his acquaintance.

Do I understand correctly that in this sentence the word "acquaintance" can be replaced by "friend", "familiar"?

If we say someone is our acquaintance, it means that we know them but not very well. Friendship is a deeper relationship.
