contentAccessorByStream	Func<Stream>	A method delegate to obtain a stream from which to open the document.

Remarks

Call this Open method to load a document from a stream. Specify the uniqueDocumentID parameter to identify the document. If the specified value is not unique within all open documents, the method activates the previously loaded document with the same uniqueDocumentID and ignores the stream data.

This overload of the Open method determines a document’s format automatically, however this process reduces the method’s performance. Use the Open(String, DocumentFormat, Func<Byte[]>) overload to improve the method performance.
