Converting from ODT (Open Document Text) to RTF (Rich Text Format) helps you work with your content in a different application or workflow. ODT and RTF serve different purposes, and converting between them bridges the gap.
ODT (Open Document Text, introduced in 2005) uses ZIP (containing XML content, styles, meta, media) compression. RTF (Rich Text Format, introduced in 1987) uses None (tagged plain text) compression. ODT browser support: None (requires office application or online viewer). RTF browser support: None (requires text editor or office application).
The quality impact depends on the specific settings used during conversion. RTF uses compression that may affect quality depending on the chosen settings.
Typical ODT file size: A 20-page document with images: ~300 KB - 3 MB. Typical RTF file size: A 10-page formatted document: ~100-500 KB.
For the best conversion results, always start from the highest quality source file available. Converting from a previously compressed file compounds any existing compression artifacts. When in doubt, use higher quality settings — you can always re-convert at lower quality later, but you cannot recover quality that has been lost.
