Unable to add SearchTextFragment to docx

GroupDocs.Annotation Product Family
1

I was trying out annotation library to add SearchTextFragment for a docx file but it failed. Is this type of annotation supported for office files.

System details:
Groupdocs.Annotation Java : 23.8
Java : 17
OS : Windows 11

try(final Annotator annotator = new Annotator(getClass().getResourceAsStream("/Test Document.docx"))){
            SearchTextFragment searchTextFragment = new SearchTextFragment();
            searchTextFragment.setText("phone");//If the document does not contain this text, nothing will be highlighted
            searchTextFragment.setFontSize(10.);
            searchTextFragment.setFontFamily("Calibri");
            searchTextFragment.setFontColor(65535);
            searchTextFragment.setBackgroundColor(16761035);
            annotator.add(searchTextFragment);
            annotator.save("Test Document annotated.docx");
        }

Error
