Loss of whitespace when converting from HTML to RTF.

[IanD]

Hello,

I'm evaluating the RTF to HTML and HTML to RTF products for use, and have run into a problem when converting HTML into RTF.

When the HTML contains whitespace and formatting, the whitespace is lost in the RTF output.

For example, HTML that displays as:

Alpha Beta Gamma

(Where Alpha and Beta are spans with a trailing space)

The returned RTF will appear as follows.

AlphaBetaGamma

(Converting RTF to HTML with your sister library does not exhibit this problem).

Code samples (in the form of a LinqPad script that demonstrates the problem) and input/output RTF/HTML is available if necessary.

Kind Regards,

Ian D

I've tried with your Document.NET library as well as a comparison, and found the same issue - RTF to HTML is fine, HTML to RTF has whitespace loss.

Hi

Could you send me your original file foe test?

I've tested your files.
Do you think, that you have 6 extra spaces inside.

If we open any Notepad viewer and look at this string: "<b>Hello world</b>"; I confirm, that inside 6 spaces between "Hello123456world".

But any Web-Veiwer understands this as a single space: "Hello1world" and open the html page like an one single space inside. So we convert to one space also!

If you want to see 6 extra spaces, you need to do the next:
Just use the tag :&nbsp;

Thanks
