What is Rich Text Format?
Rich Text Format (RTF) is a standardized way to encode various text
formatting properties, such as bold characters and typefaces, as well
as document formatting and structures. By saving a document in RTF,
you can open the file in many word processors and other RTF-aware
software packages with much of its formatting left intact. Many word
processing programs will allow you to save a document in RTF when you
select Save As... .
You can find the specification for RTF in article 86999 of the Microsoft Help and Support web site.
