Finding paths in PDF document

[steveferda]

Can I find paths in PDF documents using Spire? My use case is as follows (based on the attached PDF):

1. Locate the string "Width 2"
2. Find the position of any point on the first Path immediately to the "left" of the X,Y of the found string.

This is not quite what I am looking for. I am attempting to find the Path -- the line drawn in red, in this illustration -- which is to the left of the found text.

If Spire has a way to find the position of Paths in PDFs, that would be a place to start.

Thoughts?
