Support for .rtf format in QTextDocument or QTextEdit?

[LynneV]

I have a case where newly entered text in a database column is in HTML format - and QTextDocument and QTextEdit work great. However, older (legacy) entries are in .rtf format (the first characters of the string are "{\rtf1"). Does anyone know how to support rtf in Qt widgets? I always get the equivalent of plain text. Thanks in advance for any assistance!

There is no support for Microsofts Rich Text Format in Qt. All "rich text" stuff is realized with html and css.

Look for an RTF to HTML Converter library. If there is none you will need to write one yourself. Starting point could be: http://latex2rtf.sourceforge.net/rtfspec_45.html
