What is the best way to import formated text documents from microsoft word or a pdf?
How does one preserve the formating?

Hi Don,
Iimporting from PDF is often impossible. You might be able to export a PDF to RTF.
You can export a from most office software to RTF en set the rtfText of a field to the contents of an RTF file.
Whenever you export to RTF, you will lose a lot of formatting information. Sometimes, HTML might give better results. If you export to HTML, you can set the htmlText property of a field. You will still lose a lot of formatting information when you set the htmlText property.
Best,
Mark
