When importing from a .docx the RichTextBox is adding a blank line for each continuous section break. You can see this in the attached file - in the RichTextBox there is an extra line between sections that does not exist in the source word document.

This can be reproduced with the provided .docx. In Word the image floats in the empty space below the text but the RichTextBox has it inline and overlapping text.

Removing the rectangle from around the image in the source document has no affect.

Hi support,

We have a problem when we copy a text from MS word to RitchTextBox.
If the text copied uses an style that the namecontains tilde, then style name on the ritchtextbox is broken with strange characters.
All works well with this strange characters, but if you export to html and then import to ritchtextbox, the style is lost ...

This is a big problem because in spanish, many styles have tildes. When our user copy content from word they have problem with html format export / import.


I Attach a MS Word docx with a style with tildes:

Steps to reproduce it:

1- Open MS Word attached.
2- Copy the content.
3- Open a ritchTextBox Editor
4- Paste the content.
5- Export to html
6- Import the html.

You can see now, that the style are lost, and the name of the style contains strange characters.

Similar issue its happen when open a Word Docx with styles with tildes from ritchTextBox, not include strange characters but the style is lost.

Thanks for you support,

Hi Guys,

Our application works with a document storage and we use RadRichTextBox to allow users edit and view the documents. Unfortunately, many documents cannot be opened due to the following exception we get:

Unable to cast object of type 'Telerik.Windows.Documents.Model.FieldRangeStart' to type 'Telerik.Windows.Documents.Model.AnnotationRangeEnd

As result we receive complains from our users. Could you please facilitate with solving it? 

I have attached a simple test application with the problematic document as well the stacktrace. 

Best regards,

Yaroslav 

Hi Telerik,

We are converting XAML content into PDF file with below code.

private byte[] Xaml2Pdf(string xamlContent)
{
	try
	{
		XamlFormatProvider xamlFormatProvider = new XamlFormatProvider();
		PdfFormatProvider pdfFormatProvider = new PdfFormatProvider();
		PdfExportSettings exportSettings = new PdfExportSettings();
		exportSettings.ContentsCompressionMode = PdfContentsCompressionMode.Automatic;
		exportSettings.ContentsDeflaterCompressionLevel = 9;
		exportSettings.DocumentInfo = new PdfDocumentInfo() { Producer = "ALIS", Author = "ALIS", Creator = "ALIS" };
		exportSettings.ImagesCompressionMode = PdfImagesCompressionMode.Automatic;
		exportSettings.ImagesDeflaterCompressionLevel = 9;
		pdfFormatProvider.ExportSettings = exportSettings;

		byte[] content = pdfFormatProvider.Export(xamlFormatProvider.Import(xamlContent));

		return content;
	}
	catch
	{
		throw;
	}
}

Adding bookmarks with the same name programmatically always returns the first one in case use attempts to navigate to it using the Bookmarks dialog. 

Workaround: Remove the bookmark before adding a new one with the very same name.

Open a docx file in richtextbox, if numpages in headers do any subtraction, it can not display correctly. see the attached pictures for how to display in richtextbox and microsoft word 2016.

When cross-reference is added in the header/footer of a document in does not show the available options from the document.

As a result RadDocument instances cannot be collected by the GC.

When the user enter text using the keyboard the PositionChanged event of the CaretPosition is not fired.
The item's status changed to Declined - the LocationChanged event can be used to track when the location of the position has been changed.

We have a legacy system that generates RTF using some native RTF controls. The RTF generated by this application is compatible with MS wordpad. But seems that the RadRichTextBox is not compatible. The problem is when we use bullets.

Consider we create an RTF with bullets, using legacy -

   * Legacy Bullet 1
   * Legacy Bullet 2
   * Legacy Bullet 3

Then, this is the RTF that is generated -

{\rtf1\fbidis\ansi\ansicpg1252\deff0{\fonttbl{\f0\fnil\fcharset0 Segoe UI;}{\f1\fnil\fcharset0 Arial;}{\f2\fnil\fcharset2 Symbol;}}

{\colortbl ;\red0\green0\blue0;}
\viewkind4\uc1\pard\ltrpar\cf1\lang1033\f0\fs22\par
\pard{\pntext\f2\'B7\tab}{\*\pn\pnlvlblt\pnf2\pnindent0{\pntxtb\'B7}}\ltrpar\fi-200\li200\tx360 Legacy Bullet 1\par
\pard{\pntext\f2\'B7\tab}{\*\pn\pnlvlblt\pnf2\pnindent0{\pntxtb\'B7}}\ltrpar\fi-200\li200\tx360\tx360 Legacy Bullet 2\par
\pard{\pntext\f2\'B7\tab}{\*\pn\pnlvlblt\pnf2\pnindent0{\pntxtb\'B7}}\ltrpar\fi-200\li200\tx360\tx360\tx360 Legacy Bullet 3\par
\pard\ltrpar\tx360\tx360\tx360\par
\f1\par
}
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Now, if we open this RTF in Wordpad, then the bullets are displayed correctly.

But the bullets are not displayed when we bind the RTF to RadRichTextBox.

It displays something like this -

Legacy Bullet 1
Legacy Bullet 2
Legacy Bullet 3

And after binding the original RTF, if we now try to get the RTF this is how it looks like - 

{\rtf\ansi\ansicpg1252\uc1\deff0\deflang1033{\fonttbl{\f0 Verdana;}{\f1 Segoe UI;}{\f2 Arial;}}{\colortbl\red0\green0\blue0 ;;}{\*\defchp\ltrch\f0\fs24\i0\b0\strike0\cf0\cb1\highlight1\ulc0\ulnone}{\*\defpap\sl276\slmult1\sa180}{\stylesheet{\s0\sqformat\spriority0\ltrch\f0\fs24\i0\b0\strike0\cf0\cb1\highlight1\ulc0\ulnone\sl276\slmult1 Normal;}{\*\ts2\tsrowd\spriority59\trbrdrt\brdrnone\trbrdrb\brdrnone\trbrdrl\brdrnone\trbrdrr\brdrnone\trbrdrh\brdrnone\trbrdrv\brdrnone\trgaph0\clpadft3\clpadt0\clpadfr3\clpadr0\clpadfl3\clpadl0\clpadfb3\clpadb0\tsvertalt\ltrch\f0\fs24\i0\b0\strike0\cf0\cb1\highlight1\ulc0\ulnone\sl276\slmult1 Table Normal;}}\nouicompat\viewkind4\paperw12240\paperh15840\margl1425\margr1425\margt1425\margb1425\deftab720\sectd\pgwsxn12240\pghsxn15840\marglsxn1425\margrsxn1425\margtsxn1425\margbsxn1425\headery720\footery720\pard\s0\ltrpar\sl240\slmult1{\ltrch\f1\fs22\i0\b0\strike0\cf0\cb1\highlight1\ulc0\ulnone\par}\pard\s0\ltrpar\tx360\sl240\slmult1\li200\lin200\fi-200{\ltrch\f1\fs22\i0\b0\strike0\cf0\cb1\highlight1\ulc0\ulnone Legacy Bullet 1}{\ltrch\f1\fs22\i0\b0\strike0\cf0\cb1\highlight1\ulc0\ulnone\par}\pard\s0\ltrpar\tx360\sl240\slmult1\li200\lin200\fi-200{\ltrch\f1\fs22\i0\b0\strike0\cf0\cb1\highlight1\ulc0\ulnone Legacy Bullet 2}{\ltrch\f1\fs22\i0\b0\strike0\cf0\cb1\highlight1\ulc0\ulnone\par}\pard\s0\ltrpar\tx360\sl240\slmult1\li200\lin200\fi-200{\ltrch\f1\fs22\i0\b0\strike0\cf0\cb1\highlight1\ulc0\ulnone Legacy Bullet 3}{\ltrch\f1\fs22\i0\b0\strike0\cf0\cb1\highlight1\ulc0\ulnone\par}\pard\s0\ltrpar\tx360\sl240\slmult1{\ltrch\f1\fs22\i0\b0\strike0\cf0\cb1\highlight1\ulc0\ulnone\par}\pard\s0\ltrpar\tx360\sl240\slmult1{\ltrch\f2\fs22\i0\b0\strike0\cf0\cb1\highlight1\ulc0\ulnone\par}}

-Amul.

A NullReference exception is thrown when the content of a MS Outlook mail is copy/pasted into RadRichTextBox. 

This is reproducible in Paged LayoutMode.

Html exported from RadRichTextBox will be shown in Outlook with some formatting issues related to lists. The text in a paragraph will be shown with the formatting of its bullet.

The reason is that the content is exported to HTML as a styled list level which Outlook does not understand. The same applies to MS Word as well. This can also lead to formatting issues when the document is later imported in RichTextBox.

You can check the attached screenshot for reference.

Workaround: 
Change the styles to export as inline properties:
htmlProvider.ExportSettings.StylesExportMode = StylesExportMode.Inline;

I have tried to use the RichTextBox, but found that it does not work very well when it comes to measure the text. This results in clipped text and that the caret can be displayed in a different place then expected.
This can easily be seen with a font like Gabriola, which uses complex kerning metrics. Type a text with a lot of "ff" and "fi" and you will soon see that your caret gets out of sync and that text is sometimes clipped.
When I look at the code of RichTextBox it seems to me that it uses its own calculation of text widths and that the this is based on a very simple method using just the kerning information. There is also a hard coded list containing information which fonts that has kerning info and which fonts that are mono spaced. It seems strange to me to have this in a config file since there is a large number of fonts used by the users.
It also seem to look at the Unicode character family in order to determine if ligatures are used or not, which is also quite strange since ligatures can be used for western characters too. The font Gabriola is an example of this. Look at "fi" in a word like "fine".
It can potentially consume a lot of memory since I think that it builds a dictionary of the kerning of all pairs of characters for all fonts that it encounters.
I guess this way of doing things were made for performance, but unfortunately, good performance doesn't help much if it doesn't work.
I am not sure if I should report this as a bug, since it is more of a fatal design issue of the whole control.

The caret of RadRichTextBox appears only when the text is selected. Once you try to reorder the letters within its content, it appears.

The issue is caused when ScrollViewer control has different than the default style for the corresponding theme and there are set Padding and/or Margin properties. 
Workaround: the template of the Caret should be edited and Style="{x:Null}" should be set on the ScrollViewer which is defined inside the Caret control template.

Please look for the same topic in the forum for context.
