RTF to Markdown
About RTF to Markdown
Convert Rich Text Format (.rtf) documents to GitHub-Flavored Markdown, entirely in your browser.
RTF files exported from legacy word processors and email clients are awkward to reuse anywhere Markdown-first. This tool parses the RTF document structure directly in your browser via a Rust-based WebAssembly parser and outputs clean Markdown, no upload required.
