    Document doc = new Document();
    doc.ResourceLoadingCallback = new ImageNameHandler();

    DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);

    // Images usually are inserted using a URI, or a byte array.
    // Every instance of a resource load will call our callback's ResourceLoading method.
    builder.InsertImage("Google logo");
    builder.InsertImage("Aspose logo");
    builder.InsertImage("Watermark");

    Assert.AreEqual(3, doc.GetChildNodes(NodeType.Shape, true).Count);

    doc.Save(ArtifactsDir + "DocumentBase.ResourceLoadingCallback.docx");
}

/// Allows us to load images into a document using predefined shorthands, as opposed to URIs.
/// This will separate image loading logic from the rest of the document construction.
