ask...

No, it's not necessary.

But you need to set up some properties. Right click richviewedit in Delphi,

choose "Settings" in the context menu, set mode "Allow adding styles

dynamically". Repeat these steps for all RichViewEdits.

In this mode, styles will be saved and loaded together with RVF documents.

Be careful: in this mode all LoadRVF*** replace styles in RVStyle with

styles from loaded document. InsertRVF*** methods merge two set of styles

(existing styles and styles from document) together.

My example uses InsertRVFFromStream method, so all 3 editor (rve, headerrve,

footerrve) can be linked to different RVStyles.

Moreover, in this mode it's highly recommended to link each editor to its

unique rvstyle.
