How to delete pages based on phrases in PDF using Adobe XI Pro?

This is my first time using Actions in Adobe Pro. I would like to..

  1. Remove all pages in a PDF that contain any of the following strings (Total, Word Document, Excel Spreadsheet) for a PDF in Adobe Pro.
  2. Remove common strings (CSI, Export, Import) from all pages throughout the PDF.

The following code was found online and addresses #1 but extracts pages based on 1 string, I was not able to get it to work and I would also prefer to run through multiple strings and delete the pages.
