RichEditControl.LoadDocumentTemplate(Byte[], DocumentFormat) Method

Loads a document template in the specified format from a byte array.

Namespace: DevExpress.Xpf.RichEdit

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

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Wpf.RichEdit

#Declaration

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

#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 RichEditControl.InvalidFormatException event fires.
