rtftohtml - A Filter to Translate RTF to HTML
RTF is a document formatting language developed by Microsoft. There are
many word processing packages (Microsoft Word, Word Perfect, Frame Maker...)
that can read or write RTF format files. rtftohtml was designed
to translate existing RTF documents into HTML - the format of the
World Wide Web. rtftohtml can also be used to
author new documents specifically for the WWW.
The latest version of rtftohtml is 2.7.5
To get you started, I have a Style Sheet for Microsoft Word. This has
definitions of the Paragraph styles that I use for authoring Web documents. It
renders my RTF versions of the documents in a style that is close to what
XMosaic 2.1 displayed (at one time.)
It is located
here.
The HTML version is
here.
About RTF
RTF (Rich Text Format) was designed by Microsoft as an open format for
interchanging documents between Microsoft Word and other word processing
packages. It is supported by WordPerfect, FrameMaker, Interleaf and many other
packages on UNIX, Apple, Macintosh, Next, and PC platforms.
The specification for RTF and a set of filters for translating RTF to
plain-text, troff and Tex and LaTex are available at:
