Examples
Traverse a document with a visitor that prints all tables that it encounters.
public void TableToText()
{
    // Open the document that has tables we want to print the info of
    Document doc = new Document(MyDir + "DocumentVisitor-compatible features.docx");

    // Create an object that inherits from the DocumentVisitor class
    TableInfoPrinter visitor = new TableInfoPrinter();

    // Accepting a visitor lets it start traversing the nodes in the document, 
    // starting with the node that accepted it to then recursively visit every child
    doc.Accept(visitor);

    // Once the visiting is complete, we can retrieve the result of the operation,
    // that in this example, has accumulated in the visitor
    Console.WriteLine(visitor.GetText());
