Option for reading metafiles from RTF

property ExtractMetafileBitmaps: Boolean;

(introduced in version 1.9)

MS Word usually does not save bitmaps in RTF as they are, it wraps them in metafiles.

If this property is set to False, such bitmaps will be loaded as TMetafile. TMetafile sometimes scales bitmap images inaccurately.

If this property is set to True, TRichView attempts to extract bitmaps embedded in metafiles and to use them instead of metafiles. If successful, they are inserted as TBitmap.

This option does not affect RTF metafiles containing something besides bitmaps, no bitmaps, or multiple bitmaps – they will be loaded as TMetafile.

Default value:

True
