RTF2HTML Converters
Michal Karzynski
I'm writing a web service using PHP. As one functionality of the page
I wanted to include uploading the user content using the RTF format.
The idea being that a user could write formatted text in any word
processor, export it to rtf and then upload it onto the page.
What I need for this purpose is a PHP library, which converts RTF to
HTML. Do you know of such libraries?
I have found some, but none of them get the job done well. I have
created a benchmark file, which contains the various formatting styles
and is generated by (the popular) MS Word 2000. That file is available
at:
http://www.pg.gda.pl/~karzyn/homepage/misc/benchmark.rtf
If you know of a RTF to HTML conversion library written in PHP I would
ask you to let me know. We may then test how it handles the benchmark
file.
Sincerely,
Michal Karzynski

I have tested 2 RTF to HTML libraries:
One by Martin Mevald, 2002

And another by Jason Stechschulte, 2000

Unfortunatelly neither of them is able to deal with the benchmark file properly.

Do you know of any other systems I could try?

There are a couple of other converters at

(maybe too basic)
http://www.theory.org/~adric/perl/rtfeeder/
(in perl but you could call using system command)
Best,
