I have C# method that reads a Word document, performs some manipulation on the content, then should return a string that will be loaded into a Rich Text editor on a web page (we are using CK Editor). My problem is that any rich text formatting, i.e. bold, underline, etc., is not preserved.
Is there a method which will etract the content of a document into a string and preserve all of the rich text tags?

Thanks for your request. Maybe in your case, you should convert your document to HTML. Please see the following code:
public string ConvertDocumentToHtml(Document doc)
{
string html = string.Empty;
// Save docuemnt to MemoryStream in Hml format
using (MemoryStream htmlStream = new MemoryStream())
{
doc.Save(htmlStream, SaveFormat.Html);
// Get Html string
html = Encoding.UTF8.GetString(htmlStream.GetBuffer(), 0, (int)htmlStream.Length);
}
// There could be BOM at the beggining of the string.
// We should remove it from the string.
while (html[0]!='<')
html = html.Substring(1);
return html;
}
Hope this helps. Please let me know if you need more assistance, I will be glad to help you.
Best regards.
This works! Thanks again Alexey!
