How to Convert RTF to ePub for Free?
What is .rtf file? Why convert RTF to ePub?
RTF is short for Rich Text Format. It is a proprietary document file type published by Microsoft
Corporation in 1987. Most word processors have the ability to read and write RTF type, including
Microsoft Word, OpenOffice, etc. However, popular eBook readers like iPad, Nook, Nexus 7,
Sony Reader, Kobo, etc., can not accept RTF directly.
To read RTF eBooks on a digital device, you will have to convert it to other formats. In most
cases, choosing ePub as the output format is the best choice. ePub stands for electronic publication
and it is the accepted standard format for digital book publishing, so almost all devices favor it.
