We use the ComponentOne C1RichTextbox - have been since SL2 - and its RTF functionality is decent.
Note that the C1 functionality implements the RTF import/export using a separate RtfFilter class, so you don't need to actually render the RichTextBox control - so you can use the RTF functionality without need for UI. Surprised RTF wasn't considered in the SL4 RichTextBox.

I needed to display a small amount of static RTF, I opened blend and copied the text in, it kept all of the formatting (well enough) including working hyperlinks (which was what I was after). How to do this on an ongoing automated way? Sorry, I have not done that yet. Good luck On Fri, May 14, 2010 at 9:31 AM, Steven Nagy <steven.n...@readify.net> wrote: Hi all, I've got the a bunch of RTF coming from a service call that needs to render. I have two options: Find a control that can render RTF or convert the RTF to something else on the server side that can be rendered natively. For option 1, it seems the new SL4 RichTextbox doesn't support RTF (unless I've missed the mechanism for importing RTF text into the control?). I've trialed the DevExpress tool but it fails to render RTF with tables. I'm currently pulling down the ComponentOne RichTextbox to see if it does any better. I've also tried option 2 - using a WPF rich textbox (in memory only) to load the RTF and then push out various output formats. It supports output to XAML but of course the XAML is not compliant with Silverlight. I have my fingers crossed for the component one control but I'm not hopeful. I was wondering if anyone had any other suggestions on how to approach this and if anyone has found a good RTF control for silverlight. Client side is SL4 and server side is .Net 4.0.
