What is RTF file format?

RTF (Rich Text Format) is a document file format developed by Microsoft for cross-platform document interchange that can be used with a variety of word processing applications. It supports features such as text formatting (including font types, sizes, and colors), images, and page layout capabilities. RTF files are stored as plain text, which makes them compatible with virtually any application that supports text files. RTF files are popular for their flexibility and easy readability, as well as their cross-platform compatibility. They are commonly used for sharing documents between different word processing applications, as well as for sending documents as email attachments. The RTF format also offers an advantage in preserving the original formatting of a document. For example, if a word processor changes the default font, the RTF file will continue to display the original font. RTF files are relatively small and fast to load, and can be compressed when sending over the internet. RTF files are commonly used in business and academic settings, and are also a popular choice for online publishing. RTF is also used by many online writing and blogging tools, such as WordPress.
