Example
using Leadtools;

// Ignore case
options.MatchCase = false;
// Any word that contains the phrase
options.WholeWordsOnly = false;
// Find all results in the bounds, not just the first
options.FindAll = true;
// Highlight the results in the View
options.RenderResults = true;
// Optionally change the highlight color
//DocumentViewerText.FoundTextBrush = new SolidBrush(Color.FromArgb(52, Color.Brown));
// Set the bounds
bool isFindingNext = true;
// We set the bounds as the whole document, but below we can specify to start wherever text is selected
// or at the current page

// uses of this same options object will cycle us through all the matches!
// (If no selected text actually exists, search will default to beginPosition.)
options.Start = DocumentViewerFindTextStart.AfterSelection;
}
else
{
// We could start at the begin position, but it makes more UI sense to start from the user's current page.
// Search will loop back around to the begin position - this just changes the starting point and order of results.

// if we found nothing between the start position and the end bound.
//options.Loop = true;
// You will likely want to clear the previous highlighted results
// on the screen so only our new results will show.
text.ClearRenderedFoundText();
// Search
