In MongoDB, you can store rich text data as strings or as BSON objects. If you want to store formatted text with HTML tags, you can simply store it as a string in a document field. Here's an example of how you can store rich text data in MongoDB from Node.js:

const MongoClient = require('mongodb').MongoClient;

const uri = 'mongodb://localhost:27017';
const dbName = 'mydatabase';

MongoClient.connect(uri, (err, client) => {
  if (err) throw err;

  const db = client.db(dbName);
  const collection = db.collection('documents');

  const richTextData = '<h1>Hello World!</h1> <p>This is some <strong>rich text</strong></p>';

  collection.insertOne({ richTextData }, (err, result) => {
    if (err) throw err;
    console.log('Rich text data saved successfully');
    client.close();
  });
});


In CouchDB, you can store rich text data as JSON documents with a field for the formatted text. Here's an example of how you can store rich text data in CouchDB from Node.js:

const nano = require('nano')('http://127.0.0.1:5984');

const db = nano.use('mydatabase');

const richTextData = {
  _id: '1',
  content: '<h1>Hello World!</h1> <p>This is some <strong>rich text</strong></p>'
};

db.insert(richTextData, (err, body) => {
  if (err) throw err;
  console.log('Rich text data saved successfully');
});


Both examples demonstrate how to save rich text data in MongoDB and CouchDB from a Node.js application. Remember to install the necessary libraries (mongodb for MongoDB and nano for CouchDB) before running the code.
