NuGet Package: DevExpress.Web.Mvc5

Declaration

C#

public static void SaveCopy(
    string extensionName,
    Stream outputStream,
    DocumentFormat format
)

VB.NET

Public Shared Sub SaveCopy(
    extensionName As String,
    outputStream As Stream,
    format As DocumentFormat
)

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
extensionName	String	A string value that specifies the RichEdit name.
outputStream	Stream	A stream object where the document is to be saved.
format	DocumentFormat	A DocumentFormat object specifying the document format.

Remarks

Use the SaveCopy method to save a copy of the specified RichEdit’s document to a stream, specifying the document’s format. This method just exports the document and does not affect the original document state (it does not initiate document synchronization, does not apply client changes to the document model, etc.).

The correct RichEdit’s state is available on a controller only if the form containing RichEdit is submitted or a request to the server is sent using the RichEdit’s callback.
