Hello Joshua,

The DocFormatProvider is part of the DocumentProcessing library which is a separate library that is not connected to the RadRichTextBox. Currently, the possible solution is to use the DocumentProcessing library to convert the document to DOCX and then open it in RadRichTextBox. 

Another approach is demonstrated here as well: xaml-sdk/RichTextBox/DocFormatProviderDemo at master · telerik/xaml-sdk

Hi Hilton,

Yes, this is still not implemented, it has a lot of votes, I am sure that it will be implemented in one of the future releases.

 I can suggest a workaround that uses the docx format for the conversion for now: 

private void RadButton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
    var rtbProvider = new Telerik.Windows.Documents.FormatProviders.OpenXml.Docx.DocxFormatProvider();
    var wordsProcessingProvider = new Telerik.Windows.Documents.Flow.FormatProviders.Docx.DocxFormatProvider();

    var radDocument = radRichTextBox.Document;

    var docBytes = rtbProvider.Export(radDocument);
    var flowDocument = wordsProcessingProvider.Import(docBytes);
}

Should you have any other questions do not hesitate to ask.

Hi Peter,

You can implement this scenario using the HtmlFormatProvider of RadRichTextBox. 

In order to use this provider, you need to add a reference to the Telerik.Windows.Documents.FormatProviders.Html assembly and a using directive for the Telerik.Windows.Documents.FormatProviders.Html namespace. 

You might find helpful to check the Import/ Export article of RadRichTextBox for more information about the functionality: http://docs.telerik.com/devtools/wpf/controls/radrichtextbox/import-export/features-import-export

Tanya
