Copying RTF from RichEditBox to SfRichTextBoxAdv

[Nima Tayebi]

I'm getting this exception while loading the stream into SfRichTextBoxAdv

{"'Windows-1252' is not a supported encoding name. For information on defining a custom encoding, see the documentation for the Encoding.RegisterProvider method.\r\nParameter name: name"}

Code:

                var iStream = new InMemoryRandomAccessStream();

                this.ContentTextBox.Document.SaveToStream(Windows.UI.Text.TextGetOptions.FormatRtf, iStream);

                iStream.Seek(0);

                this.RichTextBoxAdv.Load(iStream.AsStream(), Syncfusion.UI.Xaml.RichTextBoxAdv.FormatType.Docx);

Any idea how I can fix this?

It took me a while but I found the solution.

Windows-1252 is downloadable with a NuGet package: System.Text.Encoding.CodePages

Then I needed to add this line to my code

                Encoding.RegisterProvider(System.Text.CodePagesEncodingProvider.Instance);

Hi Nima

Thanks for choosing Syncfusion products,

The mentioned exception is raised due to not installing the ‘System.Text.Encoding.CodePages’ so when we accessing the GetEncoding method this exception raised. Once the nugget ‘System.Text.Encoding.CodePages’ has installed this exception has been resolved. But in our machine we could not able to reproduce the mentioned exception while loading RichEditBox document stream in our SfRichTextBoxAdv control. In our side the given code snippet is working fine in our supported platforms. We request you to provide the details about Visual Studio, Operating system versions and in which platform and framework you are getting this issue. If possible please provide us a sample so that we can validate more on this and provide you with appropriate solution at the earliest.

Please let us know if you have any other questions.
