Losing Margin after HTML import

[Paul]

I am using IncrementParagraphLeftIndent() to increase the left margin. When I export using the html provider I can see the margin has been set in the Style for that run.

<style type="text/css">
.p_6F87C71A { margin: 0px 0px 0px 28px;text-align: left;text-indent: 0pt;padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px; } 
.s_6BF1D20F { font-family: 'Calibri';font-style: normal;font-size: 16px;color: #000000; } 
</style><p class="p_6F87C71A"><span class="s_6BF1D20F">This text should be indented</span></p>

However, when I import using the html provider the margin setting is lost. When I export again I can see the margin is set to 0.

<style type="text/css">
.p_384D933F { margin: 0px 0px 0px 0px;text-align: left;text-indent: 0pt;padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px; } 
.s_6BF1D20F { font-family: 'Calibri';font-style: normal;font-size: 16px;color: #000000; } 
</style><p class="p_384D933F"><span class="s_6BF1D20F">This text should be indented</span></p>

Here's the code I'm using for Import/Export:

        private static HtmlFormatProvider _htmlFormatProvider;
 
        private static void InitHtmlFormatProvider()
        {
            _htmlFormatProvider = new HtmlFormatProvider();
            var htmlExportSettings = new HtmlExportSettings();
            htmlExportSettings.DocumentExportLevel = DocumentExportLevel.Fragment;
            _htmlFormatProvider.ExportSettings = htmlExportSettings;
        }
 
        private void commandBarButtonLoad_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            string text = File.ReadAllText(@"c:\temp\RichText.txt");
            RadDocument document = _htmlFormatProvider.Import(text);
            radRichTextBox1.Document = document;
        }
 
 
        private void commandBarButtonSave_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            string html = _htmlFormatProvider.Export(radRichTextBox1.Document);
            File.WriteAllText(@"c:\temp\RichText.txt", html);            
        }

Hello Paul,

Thank you for writing.

I managed to reproduce the issue by following the supplied information. I can confirm that RadRichTextBox does not behave correctly when exporting to HTML. I have added this as a bug report to our Public Issue Tracking System. Feel free to add your vote for it here: http://www.telerik.com/support/pits.aspx#/public/winforms/13971

Unfortunately, due to the internal implementation of the control, I am not able to provide you with a valid work around.

I have updated your Telerik Points for this report.

I hope that you find this information useful. Please excuse us for the introduced inconvenience.

Kind regards,
Plamen
