The RichTextBox class contains a function LoadFile(string path). Pass the LoadPath function your the location of the file you want to load and it will display it.

If you modify the text, you can save it back out as an RTF file, by calling the RichTextBoxes SaveFile function. See the reference below for further information.

If you want to save a document to PDF you need to either print the file to a PDF after installing a PDF printing driver or you will need to use a third party API for creating documents that you can export to PDF.
