Formatting is defined in 3 collections: TRVStyle.TextStyles (text

attributes), TRVStyle.ParaStyles (paragraph attributes), TRVStyle.ListStyles

(properties of bullets and numbering).

These collection can be saved with document, or can be saved separately.

If you do not want to store them with document, make sure that

rvfoSaveTextStyles, rvfoSaveParaStyles are excluded from RVFOptions

property. For any case you can also set

RVFTextStylesReadMode and RVFParaStylesReadMode to rvf_sIgnore.

How to store these collections separately?

The simplest way is to store the whole TRVStyle component to stream:

Stream.WriteComponent(TRVStyle).
