RichTextFormat to HTML

Question

I've taken a look at this thread about converting RTF to HTML but some links are down or cost money.

What is the best way to convert RTF to HTML, it is just text (font size, bold, underline, color etc.) not images or anything else.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Just Google that dead link of DocFrac, it gives you the open source location on SourceForge and a download location at SoftPedia.

Seems pretty stable, but haven't tried it myself.

EDIT: It uses a COM DLL, or unmanaged DLL, so to speak. You can link that with ordinary P/Invoke calls, but if you have trouble setting it up, have a look at this post which shows how to do this for converting RTF to HTML with DoxLib. The DLLs are found in the *.gz file from SourceForge. There's even a VB6 example project, but that can only be run with a non-.NET version of VB.

@Prisoner: see my edit above. There are DLLs in the package, btw. – Abel Mar 07 '11 at 23:01

The CopySourceAsHtml visual studio plugin (which is open source) does exactly that. Take a look at the sourcecode.

You can try the C# library from the article Writing Your Own RTF Converter which is free.
