    Hi,

    Maybe you could integrate several open source programs into this project?

    This file seemed helpfull to me: http://msxnet.org/word2rtf/files/readme.txt
    It belongs to this program: http://msxnet.org/word2rtf/

    Hello,
    integrating other open sources is probably a bad idea, the outputs are very different, ... ; so this will require to do a wrapper to convert rtf in another format ( a wrapper which will probably loose some informations in the conversion or lacks some needed informations to generate the current output).

    I just take a look at the source, they provide:
    - a code to convert MicrosoftWord Dos file and MicrosoftWrite file: write.c, it compiles but I do not have any files to test it,
    - a tool to call directly the Microsoft converter, so you will need to install first the Microsoft converter tools ...
