Converting RTFD to HTML

Subject: Converting RTFD to HTML
From: Paul Kim <email@hidden>

I'm playing with doing a QuickLook generator. I have RTFD data (pasteboard-style with attachments inline) which I can load into an NSAttributedString.

Unfortunately, QL does not accept RTFD as a native type (RTF and HTML are acceptable though). While I can use - dataFromRange:documentAttributes:error: to convert to HTML, it doesn't handle the attachments in a format that the QL side can digest. QLPreviewRequestSetDataRepresentation() requires the HTML to refer to attachments using "cid" type URLs.

Is there a way to get this out of NSAttributedString? Am I going about this the wrong way? Do I need to parse the HTML and munge all the URLs, figure out all the MIME types for the attachments and report those to the QL-side, etc.?

And yes, I know I can also render the RTFD into a context but you don't get the scrollable view that you do if you hand the data over in a text based format.

Thanks,

Paul Kim
