There are several ways to do it.

1) RESTRICTING FORMATS

You can allow accepting only plain text formats.

Exclude all options from AcceptDragDropFormats except for rvddText.

Besides, new styles can be added when pasting from the Clipboard.

You can process OnPaste to allow pasting only a plain text:

procedure TForm3.RichViewEdit1Paste(Sender: TCustomRichViewEdit;

var DoDefault: Boolean);

begin

if IsClipboardFormatAvailable(CF_TEXT) then

Sender.PasteText;

DoDefault := False;

end;

2) OPTIONS FOR RTF AND RVF

You can set options for inserting RVF and RTF so that it will not add new

styles.

Right click the RichViewEdit that must have a fixed set of styles, choose

"Settings" in the context menu,

set the mode "Use a predefined set of styles".
