Attempt to reduce space

[Tavo]

Hi there!!
I recently acquired a ScaleRichView license and have already begun to replace (in my application) all TRichViewEdit by TSRichviewEdit. I'm happy with the change.
My application to store RichView format documents in a database (MSSQL). When editing documents I allow the display of Header and Footer but these subdocuments are not saved within the document. So my new editor (SRichViewEdit) I run this before saving the contents to the field

Code: Select all

   Self.Editor.SRichViewEdit1.SubDocuments[srvhftFirstPageHeader].Clear ;   Self.Editor.SRichViewEdit1.SubDocuments[srvhftEvenPagesHeader].Clear ;
   Self.Editor.SRichViewEdit1.SubDocuments[srvhftNormalHeader].Clear ;
   Self.Editor.SRichViewEdit1.SubDocuments[srvhftFirstPageFooter].Clear ;
   Self.Editor.SRichViewEdit1.SubDocuments[srvhftEvenPagesFooter].Clear ;
   Self.Editor.SRichViewEdit1.SubDocuments[srvhftNormalFooter].Clear ;

It works well. However there is a slight difference causes me doubt: I´ve insert a document that contains only the text "Hello" with my old TRichViewEdit
Then I measure the length (in bytes) of the text with the following query

Code: Select all

select Datalength(CRTextCart) from DocsTable where......

I get...

374

Then I edit with the new TS RichView-based editor, then do the BD Post
I get

604

Both controls have this values in RVFOptions

RVFOptions = [rvfoSavePicturesBody, rvfoSaveControlsBody, rvfoSaveBinary, rvfoSaveTextStyles, rvfoSaveParaStyles, rvfoSaveDocProperties, rvfoLoadDocProperties]

Try to find what are the differences in the stored data, I believe I have found that also. You may not be able to see the correct characters but I think it exemplifies

Hello

I would like to minimize the space occupied. There is some information that can provide me on ways to reduce the storage space?

Code: Select all

I made the mistake of assigning bold text I wanted to show, that's why you see and
Thanks for readme and sorry for my bad english

It's me again I try to improve my text. Or provide alternative text
¿TScaleRichView stores more bytes TRichView or am I doing something wrong ?.
I would like to use now TScaleRichView to continue recording the same documents with the same size as before.
My idea is to keep the outside (in other tables) storing the headers, footers and backgrounds.
It is that my application stores many documents, and they take up space. Any reduction of the occupied space will be important.
Thanks for readme.

Currently, the only way is assigning:

Code: Select all

SRV.PageProperties.HeaderVisible := False;
SRV.PageProperties.FooterVisible := False;

before saving, and restore them after.
