[1.0/1.1] How to get formatting of MS Word document?

[bona]

Is it possible, to read MS Word document from .NET and get documents’ formatting, e.g. fonts used, font styles, font sizes, etc.?

[techgnome]

YEs it is.... add a reference to the Word object model (Add Reference -> COM Objects -> Search for the Microsoft Word object.)

Then use simple automation to open the Word document. Loop through each paragraph in the document, and extract the formating information you need.
