I'm working on an application that let's people send messages to each other.We have a win application and a web application.So far we are using a RichTextBox control in our windows application that let's people format their text and it's saved as a RTF text in our database.The problem is we don't have such a control in our web app but a plain text editor that not only doesn't let people to format their text but also make a formatted text to a plain text if you forward it to another person. Is there any web control that supports RTF?

A: 

So really, you want an RTF to HTML converter. A quick search on ( +"html to rtf" +c# ) shows a few possibilities, but I wonder if another route might be pragmatic - perhaps:

  • use html in the win client too
  • use something different, such as "markdown" in both

by working on html to rtf converter tools (such as Aspose) we encountered some problems such as ltr , line spacing and margin issues.We have same problems using html in our win app so I think if I can find a RTF enabled control for our web app we don't have to change our win app at all

This claims to do both HTML->RTF and RTF->HTML:
