In Word you can save as HTML, which will produce something not entirely unlike your example.

Later versions of Word produce better HTML (early versions produced usable but unreadably repetitive and overcomplicated HTML) so you might want to clean it up

Some people like to create both HTML and RTF/DOC/DOCX from a Plain Text Markup using something like Pandoc

  • Yes I can get the code from a generated HTML,but Isn't there any faster way to generate the text with it's inline HTML code ? – Kasrak Jan 03 '12 at 15:54
  • @Sypress: Maybe I don't understand what you want. Can you update your question with some more detail or a small example? (P.S. see update to answer ref Pandoc) – RedGrittyBrick Jan 03 '12 at 16:01
  • I'll edit the post for more clarify, but before that I'm looking to what included in your answer – Kasrak Jan 03 '12 at 16:06
  • Edited with more clarification, thanks for your participation – Kasrak Jan 03 '12 at 16:27
  • Ok, I'll check them Pandoc seems to do the job but not as I expected , preferably want to do it visually,, and in your other post there are lot's of tools that will take a time to check them , could you suggest me a tool for doing the job I'm looking for – Kasrak Jan 03 '12 at 16:46
  • @Sypress: I think they are all command line tools. Many text editors allow you to configure such external commands and use them from within the text editor (e.g. from menu or toolbar) – RedGrittyBrick Jan 03 '12 at 17:42

You could try unRTF.

  • Linux versions are provided at the above link.
  • Windows versions are here.
  • OS X lets you install it using Homebrew and brew install unrtf.

For example, let's create an RTF document.

enter image description here

Then convert it to HTML (which is the default setting).

unrtf test.rtf

This is the output:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC -//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN>
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv=content-type content=text/html charset=utf-8>
<!-- Translation from RTF performed by UnRTF, version 0.21.2 -->
<!--font table contains 0 fonts total-->
<!--invalid font number 0-->
</head>
<body><b><font size="3"><font color="#000000">This is a bold text<br>
<br>
<i>This is italics</i><br>
<br>
<u>This is underlined!</u></font></font></b></body>
</html>

  • this is what I want, but again seems that it's command-line utility, Preferably want to have copy-paste options or possibly could edit it visually – Kasrak Jan 03 '12 at 16:53
  • Well you can just keep both Word (or any RTF editor) and the command line open at the same time. Save the RTF file, run the command. – slhck Jan 03 '12 at 17:05
  • Yes I could, seems no any dedicated tool improved for what I'm looking for,thanks anyway, I'll try it – Kasrak Jan 03 '12 at 17:10
  • Well, you can redirect the output to another file and open it with an HTML editor like Notepad++? – slhck Jan 03 '12 at 17:52

On OS X, TextEdit can edit RTF and save as html. Here is an example of the sort of HTML it spits out:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html>
<head>
   <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
   <meta http-equiv="Content-Style-Type" content="text/css">
   <title></title>
   <meta name="Generator" content="Cocoa HTML Writer">
   <meta name="CocoaVersion" content="1138.23">
   <style type="text/css">
      p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica}
   </style>
</head>
<body>
    <p class="p1">this is a <b>test</b></p>
</body>
</html>
