Description
An example demonstrating how import DOC file formats into RadRichTextEditor.
Solution
To load a .doc file format to our WinForms RichTextEditor control you need to follow the below steps.
- Add a reference to the Telerik.Windows.Documents.Flow.FormatProviders.Doc and Telerik.Windows.Documents.Flow DLLs, located in the Telerik WinForms installation folder.
- Load the .doc type document using DocFormatProvider from our document processing library. This provider will import the document into RadFlowDocument.
- Export the RadFlowDocument to a byte array using DocxFormatProvider from the document processing library.
- The last step is to use WinForms DocxFormatProvider to load and create RadDocument from a byte array.
Implementation
C#
Telerik.Windows.Documents.Flow.FormatProviders.Doc.DocFormatProvider docFormatProvider = new Telerik.Windows.Documents.Flow.FormatProviders.Doc.DocFormatProvider();
Telerik.Windows.Documents.Flow.Model.RadFlowDocument document;
using (Stream str = new FileStream(@"../../Lorem Ipsun.doc", FileMode.Open))
{
document = docFormatProvider.Import(str);
}
Telerik.Windows.Documents.Flow.FormatProviders.Docx.DocxFormatProvider docxFormatProvider =
new Telerik.Windows.Documents.Flow.FormatProviders.Docx.DocxFormatProvider();
byte[] documentArray = docxFormatProvider.Export(document);
var radDocxFormatProvider = new Telerik.WinForms.Documents.FormatProviders.OpenXml.Docx.DocxFormatProvider();
this.radRichTextEditor1.Document = radDocxFormatProvider.Import(documentArray);
