Method CanRead

Namespace: DocWright.Formats.Rtf

Assembly: DocWright.Formats.Rtf.dll

CanRead(Stream)

Sniffs whether a stream looks like RTF, restoring its position before returning.

public bool CanRead(Stream stream)

Parameters

stream Stream: The seekable stream to sniff.

Returns

bool: true when the stream looks like RTF.

Remarks

RTF has a real signature — every conforming document begins {\rtf — which makes this probe both cheap and safe, unlike HTML's. Leading whitespace and a UTF-8 byte order mark are tolerated because both appear in the wild.
