About the RTF to PDF tool

RTF was the common ground between word processors decades ago, and plenty of old files — letters, forms, archived documents — still live in it. This tool extracts the text from an RTF file and converts it into a modern PDF readable on any device, with support for Arabic text and its direction.

The tool extracts raw text without its formatting (bold, colors, and tables don't carry over) — right for quickly rescuing content from old files, not a substitute for opening the file in a full editor when formatting matters. Processing runs in your browser with no upload.

Frequently asked questions

Is formatting like bold text and colors preserved?+

No, the tool extracts the raw text only, without its formatting; great for pulling out content quickly, but not a full replacement for the original RTF.
