Inserting preformatted text into a word document

Hi everybody !!

Initial situation: I got a string, which contains a RTF text like this:

{\rtf1\ansi{\fonttbl\f0\fswiss Helvetica;}\f0\pard
This is some {\b bold} text.\par
}

Now I want to insert this text into a word document and keep the with rtf defined format.

Another way could be copying the rtf-formatted text into the clipboard. But how do I insert text from the clipboard into a document?

Thanks

Hi Johannes,

Thank you for your interest in Syncfusion product.

Currently we don't have support to insert the RTF text into the word document using DocIO. We have planned to implement this feature in our next release.

We don't have any API's to insert the Copy clipboard to word document. But we can work around this by converting the Clipboard object to image and then insert the image into the table cell. Please find the below code snippet to do so:
[C#]

WordDocument doc = new WordDocument();
doc.EnsureMinimal();
Bitmap image = null;
if (Clipboard.GetDataObject().GetDataPresent(DataFormats.Bitmap))
image = (Bitmap)Clipboard.GetDataObject().GetData(DataFormats.Bitmap);
doc.LastParagraph.AppendPicture(image);
doc.Save("sample.doc");
Process.Start("Sample.doc");

Please let me know if you need any further assistance.

Best Regards,
Bhuvana

Do you support, appending RTF content to Word document ?

Hi Marimuthu,

At present, DocIO does not have direct API to append the RTF content into an existing Word document.

You can use the below solution to append RTF content to an existing Word document.

1. Open the RTF content as new WordDocument instance.
 
2. Import this WordDocument instance, to the destination Word document using ImportContent() method.

We have prepared sample for the same. Please find the sample from below location.

Sample link:
http://www.syncfusion.com/downloads/support/forum/78094/ze/Sample-492701203

To know more about ImportContent method kindly refer the below UG documentation link.
https://help.syncfusion.com/cr/file-formats/Syncfusion.DocIO.DLS.WordDocument.html#Syncfusion_DocIO_DLS_WordDocument_ImportContent_Syncfusion_DocIO_DLS_IWordDocument_

Kindly let us know if the sample fulfills your requirement.

Regards,
Ramanan H
