Thanks for your inquiry. You can use the following code:

//Open rtf document

Document doc = new Document("in.rtf");

//Save document in WML format

doc.Save("out.xml", SaveFormat.WordML);

Best regards.

Hi,

Thank you for your quick reply. I am really sorry that I actually didn't explain what I was looking for. I actually want to convert rtf string in richtexbox control [ which may include bullets and all those rich text] without saving it to a rtf file to word doc. ie, whatever i see in a richtextbox should be seen in word doc. Please advice.

eg: the string in richtextbox

  • Hello World

should be the same in the Doc we save using Aspose.

Thank you very much for your support.

Warm Regards,

Ali

Hi<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

Thanks for your inquiry. You can try using the following code:

//Here you should get rtf string from your RichTextBox

string rtfString = File.ReadAllText(@"Test205\in.rtf");

//Convert string to byte array

byte[] rtfBytes = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(rtfString);

//Sreate stream

MemoryStream rtfStream = new MemoryStream(rtfBytes);

//Create Aspose.Words.Document from stream

Document doc = new Document(rtfStream);

//Save document

doc.Save(@"Test205\out.doc");

Best regards.

Hi Alexy,

I tried your code and it works fine, but I tried to save the wordML to MemoryStream instead doc file since i need to get the string without saving it to external doc file and tried to read it, but output is wrong. I can simply explain with the help of below code.

string rtfString = richTextBox1.Rtf;

//Convert string to byte array

byte[] rtfBytes = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(rtfString);

//Sreate stream

MemoryStream rtfStream = new MemoryStream(rtfBytes);

StreamReader reader1 = new StreamReader(rtfStream);

//we get the string rtfString here to str1

string str1 = reader1.ReadToEnd();

//Create Aspose.Words.Document from stream

Document doc = new Document(rtfStream);

MemoryStream saveStream = new MemoryStream();

doc.Save(saveStream, SaveFormat.WordML);

StreamReader reader2 = new StreamReader(saveStream);

//here rtfString != str2

string str2 = reader2.ReadToEnd();

//but the wordML is saved correctly to xml file

doc.Save(@"C:\Documents and Settings\abdul.ali\Desktop\DocumentAliRTF.xml", SaveFormat.WordML);

Please advice.

Thank you,

Ali

Hi<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

Thanks for your request. Please try using the following code:

MemoryStream wmlStream = new MemoryStream();

//Save document

doc.Save(wmlStream, SaveFormat.WordML);

byte[] wmlBytes = wmlStream.GetBuffer();

//Get string from byte array

string wmlString = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetString(wmlBytes, 0, (int)wmlStream.Length);

//Now we can write wmlstring to file or do something else

Stream wmlFile = new FileStream(@"Test205\out.xml", FileMode.Create);

StreamWriter wmlWriter = new StreamWriter(wmlFile);

wmlWriter.Write(wmlString);

wmlWriter.Close();

wmlFile.Close();

Hope this helps.

Best regards.
