RTF parsing class libraryI have small snippets of RTF that i need to render in a new file format.
So from the RTF, i need Font (size, color, family) info, and the text / hyperlink that needs to be displayed. Is there an API that I can call to get this info? Maybe some Managed library into Word or something else? Maybe some call to convert it to the Word XML format? And the last ditch effort would be to parse it myself ...

It works fine for simple
cases but it won't render complicated RTF genreated by MS Word, for example tables.
