PR_RTF_COMPRESSED 

The PR_RTF_COMPRESSED property contains the Rich Text Format version of the message text, usually in compressed form.

Quick Info

Remarks

The PR_RTF_COMPRESSED property contains the same message text as the PR_BODY6E9KHO property but in Rich Text Format (RTF).

Message text in RTF is normally stored in compressed form. However, some systems do not compress formatted text. To accommodate them, MAPI provides the dwMagicUncompressedRTF value for a stream header to identify uncompressed RTF, and the STORE_UNCOMPRESSED_RTF in PR_STORE_SUPPORT_MASKJ2RDRL for the message store to indicate it can store uncompressed RTF.

To obtain the contents of PR_RTF_COMPRESSED, call OpenProperty, then call WrapCompressedRTFStreamL0TX_K with the MAPI_READ flag. To write into PR_RTF_COMPRESSED, open it with the MAPI_MODIFY and MAPI_CREATE flags. This ensures that the new data completely replace any old data and that the writes are performed using the minimum number of store updates.

Message stores that support RTF ignore any changes to white space in the message text. When PR_BODY is stored for the first time, the message store also generates and stores PR_RTF_COMPRESSED. If the IMAPIProp::SaveChanges21IFXQ method is subsequently called and PR_BODY has been modified, the message store calls the RTFSync72QW74 function to ensure synchronization with the RTF version. If only white space has been changed, the properties are left unchanged. This preserves any nontrivial RTF formatting when the message travels through non-RTF-aware clients and messaging systems.
