find()
Method of the data object that finds the first occurrence of a string starting from the current

find(stringToFind, leftConstraint, rightConstraint)
Finds the first occurrence of a string starting from the current position. The search can be
constrained to a series of characters (in a text file) or to a vertical strip (in a PDF file) located
between the given constraints.
The method returns null if the string cannot be found. Otherwise it returns a RectValueText (if

expressed in a number of characters if the data source is a text file, or in millimetres if the data
source is a PDF file.
