RichEditDocumentServer.SaveDocument(String, DocumentFormat) Method

Saves the control’s document to a file, specifying the document’s format.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraRichEdit

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

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

Declaration

public virtual void SaveDocument(
    string fileName,
    DocumentFormat documentFormat
)

Parameters

Name Type Description
fileName String

A string value specifying the path to a file into which to save the control’s document.

documentFormat DocumentFormat

One of the DocumentFormat enumeration values.

Remarks

Use the RichEditControl.Options.Export property to set global export options, or handle the RichEditDocumentServer.BeforeExport event to specify options for an individual export action.

When the specified document format requires that a certain type of content should be saved as external objects, as is the case for HTML format, the proper use of the SaveDocument becomes more complex. You can specify whether images are embedded in HTML code, using the HtmlDocumentExporterOptions.EmbedImages property or provide a custom IUriProvider to construct src references for images.

Note

The SaveDocument method call does not automatically change the RichEditDocumentServer.Modified property value.
