How to convert a string to RTF in C#?

To convert a plain text string to Rich Text Format (RTF) in C#, you can use the RichTextBox control from the System.Windows.Forms namespace. Although the RichTextBox is a Windows Forms control, you can still use it in a C# application to convert plain text to RTF.

Here's an example of how to do it:

using System; using System.Windows.Forms; public class Program { [STAThread] // Required for Windows Forms public static void Main() { string plainText = "This is a plain text string."; string rtfText = ConvertToRtf(plainText); Console.WriteLine("RTF:"); Console.WriteLine(rtfText); } public static string ConvertToRtf(string plainText) { using (RichTextBox richTextBox = new RichTextBox()) { // Set the plain text to the RichTextBox control richTextBox.Text = plainText; // Return the RTF text return richTextBox.Rtf; } } }

In this example, we use a temporary RichTextBox control to set the plain text and then retrieve the RTF text from it using the RichTextBox.Rtf property. Note that the [STAThread] attribute is required for Windows Forms controls to work correctly in the console application.

Please make sure to include a reference to the System.Windows.Forms assembly in your project for this code to work. Also, keep in mind that the RichTextBox control requires a Windows Forms message loop to function correctly, so you may need to use this approach in a Windows Forms application or with a message loop if you want to work with the RTF data interactively.
