Hello,
Is it possible to create PDF files from a TRichView component ? If so, is there an example ?
Many thanks

TRichView does not have its own methods for PDF export.
However, it can use third-party PDF engines.
1. If you use FireMonkey, you can use PDF engine of Skia4Delphi.
Just use
TRVPrint.SavePDF or
TRVReportHelper.SavePDF.
Skia4Delphi is included in Delphi 12, or can be downloaded from
https://github.com/skia4delphi/skia4delphi/releases
(Do not use GetIt version of Skia4Delphi if it is older than version 6).
2, In VCL version, you can use third-party tools: eDocEngine (commercial), SynPDF (free), LLPDFLib (free)
Demo projects can be found in <TRichView Dir>\ThirdParty\Export\ folder.
