RichTextBox and document that crashes it

[Fabrizio]

Hi all,
I found a problem using a document that you can download from here:
http://download2.anastasis.it/software/fabrizio/crash.docx

In few words, opening that document results in a catastrophic crash with program shutdown. This happen either in our application and in your WPF demos.
The document has been generated in Google Drive then converted in docx by Google Drive itself during the download operation.

Deep-tracking the bug, I saw that the problem is probably connected with a CommentRangeStart that hasn't a proper closing CommentRangeEnd marker.
Since I couldn't find the exact point where exception is thrown, please take this indication with a grain of salt.

Even if I know that the problem is generated by a third-party malfunction, it could be a good idea to make your document reader a little more safe.

Thanks for your assistance, bye! :)

Hello Fabrizio,

I have found that the problem is related to how a document with floating images is measured. However, this problem could not be limited to only floating images. That is why the bug report will be with high priority in out backlog. I have logged a public item which you could follow for status updates. Here is the link: NullReferenceException is thrown when measuring a document with floating image as the first element on a second page

I have updated your Telerik points in appreciation for your involvement.
If you have further questions feel free to write back to us.
