Look into Rich Text examples in your Qt folder.

Yes i know there is a rich text editor which doesn't support RTF format.

[munna]

Use QTextEdit. It supports rich text.

I am talking about .rtf format with supports document formatting and images.

Qt does not support the RTF format used by word processors, but a rich text format that is a subset of HTML.

In your case I think you will need to write your own widget.

You just need to write your own parser that reads Microsoft RTF and translates it into simple HTML (the markup used in Qt). THen use QTextEdit to display it. This will be much easier than writing your own widget.

Just out of interest - why would you want to use RTF anyway? - it's pretty much unsupported on other platforms. Or is this Windows-only?

Thanks, but i really need a full featured word editor like Word pad with supports for formatting and images. The editor is only a part of my application.

Thanks.

I don't see the problem. Import the .rtf into the native format, then when done, save back into .rtf. For simple WordPad like formatting, it shouldn't be too terribly difficult. Of course, it's a helluva lot more difficult than using an off-the-shelf class, but it's better than nothing.

And what do you think QTextEdit is?
