RTF stands for Rich Text Format which is a kind of generic word-processor
document format. You will need to use a suitable word-processor to import
this type of file - it will then decode it to give you the bold, italic,
etc characters which you can then print. I used Word for Windows 2, but I'm
sure most modern WPs will do the job... I'm not sure if there's a shareware
program available to convert RTF files to other formats.
