Form field support in SfRichTextBoxAdv

[Veeresh]

Hi,

I am using SfRichTexBoxAdv control to add or edit word document. I am trying to add Form field using same but i don't see any option in ribbon to add form field. I am using SfRichTextRibbon ribbon. If I import word document with form fields defined then it works as expected when I do mail merge. Mail merge works if I copy paste content from other word document also.

I am using "18.2.0.57" version of syncfusion contol.

I want to know how can I add form field using SfRichTextBoxAdv?

Hi Veeresh, 

Thanks for using Syncfusion products,

At present, our SfRicTextBoxAdv control does not have support for all the Form filling fields and, we do not have any immediate plan to implement this feature. We will let you know once the feature is implemented. To track the status of the feature, please use the following feedback link.

As a workaround, we suggest you use UIContainerAdv element to insert form fields inside the paragraph as an inline element and export the control content as text or image. Please refer the below API links.

Also, we have prepared the sample to demonstrate the same. Which can be downloaded from the following link.

Please let us know if you have any other questions.
