NAME

       UnRTF - converts document in RTF format to other formats

SYNOPSIS

       unrtf [options] [file...]

       Options:  [--nopict]  [--noremap]  [--html]  [--text]  [--vt]  [--rtf]  [--latex] [--help]
       [--verbose] [--quiet] [--version] [-P config_search_path] [-t tags_file]

DESCRIPTION

       The program unrtf is a converter from Rich Text  Format  (RTF)  to  a  growing  number  of
       document  formats.  At  present  it supports Hypertext Markup Language (HTML), plain text,
       text with VT100 codes, LaTeX, and RTF itself.  It is possible to produce troff files  with
       macro calls; an example configuration for troff and the mm macro package is provided.  All
       output formats except HTML are "alpha"  i.e.  limited  and  development  has  just  begun.
       However  with  HTML,  the  program  supports  tables,  fonts,  hyperlinks,  and  paragraph
       alignment. Font support includes face and size changes, as well as typical attributes such
       as italic, bold, underlining, strikethrough, smallcaps, allcaps, expand, compress and both
       foreground and background colors.  Images are always  stored  to  separate  files  in  the
       current directory, or they can be ignored.

       Starting with version 0.21.0, all control of unrtf output is through runtime configuration
       files.  This makes it easy for users to fine-tune the output,  and/or  define  new  output
       formats.   The  configuration  files  can  be read from the distributed ones, or from user
       files, searched for in the config_search_path .

       Code page conversion is performed with the iconv(3) package.

OPTIONS

       --nopict
              disables the automatic storing of embedded pictures to the current directory.

       --noremap
              disables charset conversion (currently only works for 8-bit charsets).

       --html selects HTML output (default).

       --rtf  selects RTF output.  The resulting output will  often  be  much  smaller  than  the
              input.

       --text selects plain ASCII text output.

       --vt   selects text output with VT100 escape codes.

       --latex
              selects output of a LaTeX document.

       --verbose
              prints additional information.

       --quiet
              suppress output of leading comments

       --version
              prints the program version.

       -t tags_file
              specifies  the  tags  output  configuration  file to be used. The command "unrtf -t
              html" is functionally identical to "unrtf --html".  The configuration files  are  a
              simple  format.   To  change  the  behaviour  of  unrtf,  a  local copy of a system
              configuration file can be be made and edited.  The most complete configuration file
              and hence the best starting point is /usr/local/share/unrtf/html.conf.

       -P config_search_path
              specifies  the directories in which the configuration file for the specified format
              will be sought.  The path can be provided as a single directory or a list of  colon
              separated  directories.   The  default is /usr/local/share/unrtf/ where distributed
              output configuration files are installed.

FILES

       /usr/local/share/unrtf/*.conf
              - run time output configuration files.

       /usr/local/share/unrtf/SYMBOL.charmap
              - UTF encoding of the SYMBOL font used in many RTF files.  Unfortunately the  iconv
              package  does  not  include  font encodings.  The format is identical to iconv code
              page files.
