How to: Read a Journal File

  • Article

The Microsoft Windows Journal Note Reader component provides programmatic read access to files in the Journal format. Journal files have the .jnt file extension. This simple component takes a stream containing a .jnt file and returns a stream containing the file’s content in XML format. The XML returned by the component conforms to the Journal Note Reader schema. This schema is documented in Journal Reader Schema Reference.

Example

The following example reads a .jnt file and adds each page in the file to an InkCanvas. This example assumes that there is a TabControl called pagePanel.

Compiling the Code

To compile the code, add a reference to the Microsoft.Ink.JournalReader.dll assembly.
