Convert HTML to RTF
-
Hello, I am in searchof a method that converts my HTML input into RTF. I don't want to have any 3rd party tools to do it. Can anyone help me to achieve this? Thanks in advance. Sebastian

OK, then you need to set aside a good amount of time to write the code to do it yourself. When you're done, you could probably sell it as a third party component.

Here's one way: 1. Display the HTML to be converted in a browser. 2. Press Ctrl-PrtScn to get a screen shot. 3. Start WordPad. 4. Press Ctrl-V to paste the screen shot. 5. Select File | Save As in WordPad. 6. Save as a .rtf file. And you have the HTML converted to rtf without any 3rd party tools.

try to put it in a Richtextbox and start from there. You'll probably have to manually escape the tags and replace them by rtf codes. (Readme's via google).

If you don't mind a few shortcomings, why don't you just try using Word: let it open the HTML document and save as RTF. Warning: make sure not to have it save any HTML, Word's idea of HTML is a bit fundamentalist. :)

Any conversion between two formats can be problematic. In most cases the 'owners'of the formats generally provide the API's to convert. IF you are using MS Orifice, you can open HTML files and then save them to rtf; this can be done programatically.

Fundamentalist?? That's too "warm and fuzzy" a description for what Word considers HTML. No, I think "Jihad", "Shock and Awe", "GBU-43/B Massive Ordnance Air Blast bomb", ... those are a bit more accurate.

2006, 2007, 2008I plead guilty. :-O My preference for understatement goes pale next to your highly accurate politico-military jargon. BTW: I'm beginning to worry about your long-term MS MVP status now. I wouldn't want to see another one go down and switch to Mac misery.

I'm not an MS MVP anymore. I'm spending way too much time with my 15 month old son to keep up on MS's and CodeProject's stuff at the moment.
