RTF Redirected from Rich Text Format
RTF (usually referred to as such) stands for Rich Text Format, a file format developed by Microsoft that most text processing programs are able to read and write. RTF is a poorly standardised format with incompatibilities reported even between different Microsoft applications, and tends to be rarely used for document distribution.
The simple example of an RTF file:
{\rtf
Hello
\par
This is a
little {\b text}.
\par
The End
}
will show as
Hello
This is a little text.
The End
Paragraphs have to be explicitly marked with \par and {\b ....} marks bold text. This syntax is similar to that of TeX.
