    NOV rich text view supports loading of text documents from the following formats - TXT, RTF, DOCX, HTML, EPUB, NTB, and NTX.

     Load from File or Stream Directly

    To load a Nevron rich text document synchronously from a local file call the LoadFromLocalFile method of the rich text view. This method doesn't work on sandboxed platforms like Blazor WebAssembly.

    Load a Nevron binary text document file synchronously
    Copy Code
    richTextView.LoadFromLocalFile(@"D:\Documents\MyTextDocument.ntb");
    

    To load a Nevron rich text document asynchronously call the LoadFromFileAsync method of the rich text view. Calling this method shows a loader over the rich text view until the loading completes. The method returns a promise, which can be used to get notified when the loading completes.

    Load a Nevron binary text document file asynchronously
    Copy Code
    richTextView.LoadFromFileAsync(@"D:\Documents\MyTextDocument.ntb").Then(
        delegate (bool success)
        {
        },
        delegate (Exception ex)
        {
        }
    );
    

    To load a rich text document from a stream call the LoadFromStream method of the rich text view and pass the text format to load:

    Load from a Nevron binary text document stream
    Copy Code
    richTextView.LoadFromStream(stream, NTextFormat.NevronBinary);
    
     Show an Open File Dialog

    The OpenFileAsync method shows an Open File dialog with all supported text formats:

    Open File dialog
    Copy Code
    richTextView.OpenFileAsync();
    

    If you want a specific format to be selected by default, pass it as an argument:

    Open File dialog with a specific file format selected
    Copy Code
    richTextView.OpenFileAsync(NTextFormat.NevronBinary);
