How do I convert an RTF to PDF?

Drop your .rtf file onto the upload area, pick a page size and font size, then click Convert to PDF. The paginated PDF downloads straight from your browser — no account and no upload.

What formatting is preserved?

Text, bold, italic, tabs, and paragraph breaks carry over. Long lines wrap to the page width and text flows onto new pages automatically. RTF is a lightweight rich-text format, so the tool keeps the common inline formatting rather than exact page layout.

Why convert RTF to PDF?

RTF opens in many editors but renders slightly differently in each, and it is awkward to share when you need a fixed layout. A PDF looks the same everywhere and is the format most portals and email attachments expect.

Is my RTF file uploaded anywhere?

No. Parsing and PDF assembly (via pdf-lib) run entirely in your browser. Your file never leaves your device and nothing is stored on a server. Closing the tab clears everything.

What about images or tables in the RTF?

This tool focuses on text with bold, italic, and paragraph structure. Embedded images and complex table layouts are not rendered — the text content is kept and the picture data is skipped. For image-heavy documents, exporting to PDF from the original editor gives a closer match.

What about accented characters or symbols?

Standard Latin characters and Western accents (é, ñ, ü, and similar) render correctly. Characters outside the built-in PDF font set — some symbols and non-Latin scripts — are replaced with a placeholder, since the standard PDF fonts do not include them.
