I've been using the HTML prop to read/write text files and save formattedHello Ron,
texts. Now, with 2.0 ability to handle RTF text I want to asking about the
plus/minuses of using RTF over HTML. My purpose is to save formatted text to
regular text files that can be read by other apps (be it a browser or text
editor), as well as my own rev app.
Which would you go with?
try exchange documents with regular (Win) Users. Dont look at this list; here are professionals and power-user. But the next language secretary, office worker, translator, etc are not power-user. Thats not their job. Most of them believe PC=WIN=Office=Win=PC. So they usually have no idea about handling html. But usually they can save/open a word-document as an rtf-file.
If you do sharing documents if you are working on one document like for translation or for any textoriented and multimedia production with different tools, you will see very fast the difference about handling rtf and html. In this case a "strong" standard is very important. Html is *not* that standard. Rtf is it much more. If you do exchange/sharing documents on html (ex/importing) you will be surprised what kind of document you will get finally. And how much work and money it costs to repair it at least this exhchanges. More exactly: I was surprised what I got... Thats why I think that rtf support is so important in rev. Therefore i struggled a lot for it. And now we got it in 2.0: HEUREKA!
Pls have a look at the rev archive, there is a thread about html rtf text formating with rev.
(f.e. Rev supports html 2.0. It does not support 4.0 or CSS...)
But the rtf-format is supported from nearly any 20$ shareware wich is able to handele text...
hope that helps
