  • Paging and Printing

    RichTextBox fully supports paging and printing. You can edit documents in either Print Layout or Draft view; much like Microsoft Word. Print Layout supports continuous page flow when scrolling and even supports facing multiple pages horizontally.

  • Page Zooming

    RichTextBox supports page zooming in both print layout and draft views.

  • Spell-check Your Text

    RichTextBox supports both types of spell-checking using the C1SpellChecker component:

    • Modal spell checking: Shows a Spell dialog box and selects each spelling mistake in the document. The end-user may choose to ignore the mistake, fix it by typing or picking from a list of suggestions, or add the word to a user dictionary.
    • As-you-type checking: Highlights spelling mistakes as the end-user types, typically with a wavy, red underline. The end-user may right-click the mistake in the document to see a menu with options that include options to ignore, add to dictionary, or pick a suggestion to correct the mistake automatically.

  • Undo/Redo Support

    Edit data in the RichTextBox with confidence. You now have the ability to easily undo and redo your changes with the click of a button.

  • Clipboard Support

    C1RichTextBox fully supports the clipboard. Implement cut/copy/paste activities within the rich textbox.

  • Annotations

    Add highlights and annotations to your documents with RichTextBox. Annotations are comments, notes, remarks or explanations that can be attached to specific part of a Web document.

  • Save as PDF

    In addition to direct printing, The C1RichTextBox content can be exported to PDF format.

  • Rich Document Object Model

    Patterned after the Document class in WPF, RichTextBox's rich document object model (DOM) supports images, lists, hyperlinks, borders, background and foreground colors for text ranges, and more. Use the rich DOM to create and modify documents programmatically.
