'' This sample loads the PDF file created by the Transforms sample,
'' finds all occurrences of a string in the loaded document,
'' and highlights these occurrences. Two points of interest about this sample:
'' - The texts in the original document are graphically transformed,
'' but the quadrilaterals supplied by the FindText method allows you to easily
'' highlight the finds even in that case.
'' - The sample inserts a new content stream at index 0 of the page,
'' this ensures that the highlighting is drawn UNDER the original content.
'' (The same approach may be used to add watermarks etc. to existing files.)

'' Loop through pages, on each page insert a new content stream at index 0,
