Styles with names only different in spaces are treated as one.
Workaround:
var rtf = File.ReadAllText(fileName);
rtf = this.RenameStyleDifferentInOnlySpaces(rtf);
var document = provider.Import(rtf);
...
private string RenameStyleDifferentInOnlySpaces(string rtf)
{
HashSet<string> styles = new HashSet<string>();
string pattern = @"{\\(?:\*\\c)?s([0-9]+)[^}]*\n?[^}]*\\[^' ]* ?'?([^;]*)";
var matches = Regex.Matches(rtf, pattern);
foreach (Match match in matches)
{
string styleName = match.Groups[2].Value.Replace(" ", string.Empty);
if (styles.Contains(styleName))
{
styleName = this.ReplaceOldStyleName(ref rtf, styles, match).Replace(" ", string.Empty);
}
styles.Add(styleName);
}
return rtf;
}
private string ReplaceOldStyleName(ref string rtf, HashSet<string> styles, Match match)
{
string oldStyleName = match.Groups[2].Value;
StringBuilder styleNameBuilder = new StringBuilder(oldStyleName + "0");
while (styles.Contains(styleNameBuilder.ToString().Replace(" ", string.Empty)))
{
styleNameBuilder.Append("0");
}
string oldMatch = match.Groups[0].Value;
string newMatch = oldMatch.Replace(oldStyleName, styleNameBuilder.ToString());
rtf = rtf.Replace(oldMatch, newMatch);
return styleNameBuilder.ToString();
}
StackOverflowException when importing a document with style based on itself.
Use the following code to strip the faulty "based on" definition from the RTF:
RtfFormatProvider provider = new RtfFormatProvider();
var rtf = File.ReadAllText(ofd.FileName);
rtf = this.ReplaceSelfBasedOnStyle(rtf);
this.flowDocument = provider.Import(rtf);
...
private string ReplaceSelfBasedOnStyle(string rtf)
{
string pattern = @"{[\n]*\\s[0-9]+[^;]* \\\w* (Normal);}";
var matches = Regex.Matches(rtf, pattern);
foreach (Match match in matches)
{
string oldValue = match.Value;
string newValue = oldValue.Replace(@"\sbasedon0 ", string.Empty);
rtf = rtf.Replace(oldValue, newValue);
}
return rtf;
}
Exception when converting table with empty runs in the cells.
When importing documents containing pictures with references represented with the r:link attribute, ArgumentNullException is thrown.
When mailmerging a document, with nested mail merge group which starts inside a table and ends outside the table, a NullReferenceException is thrown: "System.NullReferenceException: 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object.' firstParagraphInTemplate was null."
Workaround: move the group end (EndGroup, TableEnd, RangeEnd, or GroupEnd) merge field inside the table where the group starts.
When some character is not supported by the font, the fallback mechanism should try finding some other font that is capable of rendering the unsupported character. However, RadPdfProcessing fallback mechanism does not always find the correct font which sometimes result in wrong glyph visualization or in missing glyph. Workaround: Font that supports these special characters may be used. This way the fallback mechanism will not be needed to export the PDF text.
