RichEditDocumentServer.LoadDocumentTemplate(Stream, DocumentFormat) Method

Loads a document template with specified format from a stream.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraRichEdit

Assembly: DevExpress.RichEdit.v24.2.Core.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.RichEdit.Core

#Declaration

public virtual bool LoadDocumentTemplate(
    Stream stream,
    DocumentFormat documentFormat
)

#Parameters

Name Type Description
stream Stream

The stream from which to load a document.

documentFormat DocumentFormat

One of the DocumentFormat enumeration members, indicating the document format.

#Returns

Type Description
Boolean

true, if the document is successfully loaded; otherwise, false.

#Remarks

The document template cannot be automatically 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.

The source stream can be non-seekable. In this case, the stream is buffered automatically. After loading the document, the stream remains open.

If the document is in a different format than specified or the passed stream is null, the RichEditDocumentServer.InvalidFormatException event fires.
