Namespace: DevExpress.XtraRichEdit

Assembly: DevExpress.RichEdit.v24.1.Core.dll

NuGet Packages: DevExpress.RichEdit.Core, DevExpress.Win.Navigation

Declaration

C#

public virtual bool LoadDocumentTemplate(
    byte[] buffer,
    DocumentFormat documentFormat
)

VB.NET

Public Overridable Function LoadDocumentTemplate(
    buffer As Byte(),
    documentFormat As DocumentFormat
) As Boolean

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
buffer	Byte[]	A byte array that contains document data.
documentFormat	DocumentFormat	An enumeration member that specifies the format of the loaded document.

Returns

Type	Description
Boolean	true if the document was successfully loaded; otherwise, false.

Remarks

A document template cannot be overwritten either in code or in the UI. The information about the original file location and its format is dropped. An attempt to save (i.e., overwrite) the original document invokes the Save As dialog.

If a document has a different format than the documentFormat parameter specifies, the RichEditDocumentServer.InvalidFormatException event fires.
