RTF stores formatted text using control word sequences in a plain-text file. HTML stores formatted text using markup tags in a plain-text file. Both are text-based formats that encode formatting inline with content, but they target different rendering environments — RTF for word processors, HTML for web browsers. Converting RTF to HTML translates one text-based formatting system to another, making RTF content viewable in browsers and publishable on the web.

The conversion maps RTF control words to HTML elements: \b becomes <strong>, \i becomes <em>, \par becomes <p>, \trowd/\cell becomes <table>/<td>, and font/color specifications become CSS properties. The result is semantic HTML suitable for web publishing, CMS integration, and email.

RTF content needs HTML conversion for any web-based use. Publishing RTF documents as web pages, blog posts, or CMS entries requires HTML. Email newsletters, web applications, and online archives all render HTML — not RTF. Converting RTF to HTML makes the content available for all web-based consumption.

HTML also makes content accessible. Search engines index HTML natively, screen readers parse HTML semantically, and mobile browsers render HTML responsively. RTF content that is converted to HTML becomes discoverable by Google, accessible to visually impaired users, and responsive on mobile devices — none of which is possible with RTF.

LibreOffice or Pandoc parses the RTF control word syntax and generates HTML output. RTF paragraph formatting maps to HTML block elements: headings to <h1>-<h6>, body text to <p>, list items to <li>. Character formatting maps to inline elements or CSS: \b to <strong> or font-weight:bold, \i to <em>, \ul to text-decoration:underline. Tables are converted to <table>/<tr>/<td> with appropriate attributes. Images from RTF \pict groups are decoded and embedded as Base64 data URIs or saved as separate files. Pandoc produces cleaner, more semantic output; LibreOffice preserves more visual formatting with inline CSS.

The text content and basic formatting will match. Page-specific elements (margins, headers, footers, page breaks) do not translate to HTML's continuous layout model.

Yes. The HTML output is compatible with WordPress's editor. Strip inline styles if you prefer your theme's CSS to control the visual appearance.

Yes. Images from RTF \pict groups are decoded and included as Base64 data URIs or external image files referenced by the HTML.

Depends on the engine. Pandoc infers semantic headings from text formatting. LibreOffice uses more inline CSS. For semantic output, prefer Pandoc.

The raw HTML uses basic formatting. For fully responsive display, wrap it in a responsive CSS framework or adapt it to your website's responsive design.
