Hi Muchinger,

WPF RichTextBox use FlowDocument format, there is no such RichTextBox support RTF directly, you could use TextRange.Load method to load RTF specification.

All,

thanks for your answers, but my question is still open. Our code is running fine, so I do not need an "how-to" remarks. Let me try to explain in another way our needs:

There are different versions of the RTF standard or the RTF specification: 1.0,  1.3,  1.4,  1.5,  1.6, 1.7,  1.8,  1.9.1. For 1.6 you may look at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa140277(v=office.10).aspx

Now: which one is supported by RichTextBox, FlowDocument, WPF, .NET 4.0?

Thanks

Michael

Thanks for the reply Luke.

Maybe it is because I am not a native English speaker, but I still do not understand. You say "All support.". So my question is: "All support what?". Or did you mean "All (1.0,  1.3,  1.4,  1.5,  1.6, 1.7,  1.8,  1.9.1.) are supported by RichTextBox/FlowDocument in .NET 4.0"?

Thanks

Michael

Answer 6
