A QUICK WALKTHROUGH
How to use this tool
- Choose one RTF file up to 20 MB.
- Review the reflowed preview; tables are rejected and embedded pictures or objects are omitted.
- Choose Print / Save as PDF and select Save as PDF in the browser print dialog.
Common RTF text formatting
The reader supports paragraphs, alignment, line and page breaks, Unicode escapes, bold, italic, underline, strike-through, superscript, and subscript. Table documents are rejected instead of flattened into misleading text.
Local, bounded processing
RTF parsing runs in a browser Worker and the input is never uploaded. Files are limited to 20 MB, nested groups to 64 levels, parsing to two million tokens, generated markup to 24 MB, and processing to 30 seconds.
A print preview, not a full RTF renderer
Only Windows-1252 byte escapes and Unicode escapes are supported. Pictures and embedded objects are omitted. Original page layout, exact fonts, columns, headers/footers, tables, and pagination are not preserved. The browser print dialog creates the PDF; inspect the preview before saving.
GOOD TO KNOW
Common questions
Does this preserve the original page layout?
No. It reflows supported text and common inline formatting into a simple print preview; margins, exact fonts, columns, headers/footers, tables, and original pagination are not preserved.
Are files uploaded?
No. Parsing runs in a browser Worker on your device.
Can it convert RTF tables or pictures?
Table documents are rejected. Embedded pictures and objects are omitted and reported rather than fetched or executed.
How do I create the PDF?
Choose Print / Save as PDF, then select Save as PDF in your browser or operating-system print dialog.
