Hi,

Sorry, RTF formatted text is not currently supported by the component. We will add RTF support later.

Hi,
We are using rtf control in our application & inserting that rtf data in the table.
We want to generate word application using aspose.word & insert decoded rtf text in the word document.
This is essential feature of our application.
Currently application is in development phase, if we can do this using aspose.word then we will use it , otherwise we have to use diff tool.
Let me know , when will u incorporate this feature in your tool, is it possible in couple of days ???
Thanks

Sorry, the implementation will most likely take more than a couple of days.

We actually want to put some text in a multi line text box on a windows form and allow our user to edit it and also modify its font, color, size etc. After the user has done the same we want to transfer that frmatted content to a word document.

So we thought to use the rich text box for the same. But as we understand there is no way currently to add the rtf string to a word document using aspose.word.

Can you suggest how can that be possible using Aspose.word even if we have to use some alternative method in our windows form?

thanks

Currently you can try to use some control allowing editing and exporting text in HTML format, for example Microsoft WebBrowser control. Search MSDN for how to use this control in WinForms, also there are lots of useful articles in the Internet, e.g.

http://www.codeproject.com/csharp/webbrowser.asp.

Later you can switch to the regular rich text box because it should work nice when we implement RTF support.

Thank you for the request.

Hi,
We are currently evaluating this product and am wondering if you were able to address this issue i.e. RTF string to a word document?

Hi,

Thank you for evaluating Aspose.Word.

Sorry, implementing RTF import/export is still several months away.

Is there an updated time frame for being able to add rtf strings to word documents?
thanks,

Sorry John, no updates yet. Adding RTF support is a major improvement so we need some time to implement it.

Curious to know if there has been any progress since my last post.

I regret to say it, but RTF features are not available yet.

Hi,
Sorry if I missed it, but there are a lot of threads on this topic, and in searching the fourms and looking at the 4.0 announcement blog entry and product feature sheets, it appears that this feature is still not supported? (I.e. the ability to take RTF text from a RichTextBox and insert it into a Word document.)
Thanks for letting me know one way or the other. Also if it’s not yeat supported, it would be great to know if you are still working on this feature and have an estimate of when it will be ready.

Hi,
Thank you for your interest. Indeed, we are working on RTF import extensively, and most of the job is already done. At the moment I’m debugging the importer. I guess I will get all tests passed by the New Year holidays, and all I will have to add then will be the support of shapes. So January 2007 is the most probable date of release.

Hi,
We’ve released Aspose.Words 4.1 which supports RTF import.
