Hi all,

Can anyone suggest a good Windows compatible program that can convert HTML format to RTF? Either a stand-alone utility or maybe part of an HTML editor. Thanx.

OK onpnt, I'll bite.
How is &quot;<html dir=&quot;rtl&quot;>&quot; supposed to convert an HTML document into a Rich Text Format document?

Coffee Cup HTML editor can strip all the code from an HTML document to just leave the text which can then be copied and pasted into a word processor or even Windows Wordpad and then a bit of formatting added. It works really well and Coffee Cup is good, I use it all the time and it is not too expensive. You can download a free trial version from Joe Bananas' guide to Perth, Scotland

Thank you Bananas. But I'm looking for an app that will do the conversion in a single step. Just import as HTML and export as RTF. :)

There is a nice program called TreePad Plus that will do that. It's a sort of PIM on steroids. But the conversion process is not all that accurate and the format can be off. Especially with tables.

You would think there would be a lot of apps around that were designed to do this kind of conversion. But if there are, I'm sure not having any luck at finding them. :( Any additional ideas or suggestions would be most welcome.

OK, thanks for trying.

Maybe it's best to put this thread to bed.

How about MS Word? it doesn't convert <br> to vbCrLf, so any text tha is longer than a cell will go beyond the cell boundary.

If you don't need perfection, this may be close enough.
