Hello!
I want to perform the following: load MS Word (.rtf) file content using internal API (the format is {content: binaryArray, contentType: 'application/octet-stream'}) and insert the file content as a value for RTE for the read\update\save.
It is some kind of replacement for manual copy\paste from the opened .rtf file in MS Word.
Currently, when I receive the rtf file in the aforementioned format, I see the rtf specific text in RTE editor (screen in attachments).
I am able to receive a content and create a BLob based on it to download the file, but that's all what i have for now and i am looking at the control that may embed MS Word content with styling\formatting "on the fly".
Is there a case for this? Can I dynamically read\set such kind of content?
Regards,
Andrey

Hello, Andrey,
I can suggest checking the following article on sanitizing the content from MS Word. The article is for paste, but the main idea is that the content has to be processed in order to be used and displayed correctly in the Editor:

Hi Stefan,
Thanks for the answer. I have had a look into pasting from MS Word and it is not my case.
Am I correct that RTE cannot work directly with RTF files i.e. take RTF content as value without any conversion?
It seems that I have to convert file to HTML format and pass as value to RTE, because when I pasted RTF content from MS Word, it appears as HTML formatted in RTE component.
Hello, Andrey,
Yes, I can confirm that in order to use RTF content it has to be converted to HTML before that in order for the Editor to display it.
For example, our Telerik Document Processing library product has an option to do this conversion on the server. Based on the type of server the application uses, this could be a valuable option:

Thanks, Stefan!
It might be a case for me, I mean using Document Processing library.
