For any case, I need to ask - is your question about TRichEdit or TRichViewEdit?

I used the TRichViewEdit... is it better that i use the TRichView for Output only?

Best wishes... Frank

RichView is a little more resource-friendly. Do you need all RichViews to be filled all the time?

Memory consumption depends a lot on what the RichViews contains.

TRichViewEdit and TRichView use almost the same amount of resources.
(additional resources used for editing are very insignificant)

Probably, documents are created in nonoptimal way. For example, several items are used to represent adjacent text where one item could be used.
Try to call NormalizeRichView procedure (RVNormalize.pas from RichViewActions) for your documents, it can make them more optimal.

Also, the justify alignment requires more memory than other types of alignment.
