WPF RichTextBox: save / load in custom format

Question

I need to load / save data from WPF RichTextBox in a custom format (similar to Markdown).

RichTextBox supports saving / loading in several basic formats (Rtf, Text, Xaml) using the TextRange.Save method :

using (FileStream fs = File.OpenWrite(file)) {
    TextRange text = new TextRange(rtNote.Document.ContentStart, rtNote.Document.ContentEnd);
    text.Save(fs, DataFormats.Xaml);                
}

What is the best way to implement save / load custom format?

One way I can come up with is to save the TextRange in the memory stream as Xaml, parse the resulting XML and iterate over it for conversion. Is there an easier way?
