cd RTF-Converter

Install using pip:
pip install rtf-converter

Install using npm:
npm i rtf-converter

Install using composer:
composer require clank-ai/rtf-converter

Python - Example Usage

Convert a simple RTF string to plain text:

from rtf_converter import rtf_to_txt

# Sample RTF text
rtf_text = r"{\rtf1\ansi\ansicpg1252\deff0\deflang1033{\fonttbl{\f0\fswiss\fcharset0 Helvetica;}}{\colortbl ;\red255\green0\blue0;}\pard\tx720\tx1440\tx2160\tx2880\tx3600\tx4320\tx5040\tx5760\tx6480\tx7200\tx7920\tx8640\ql\qnatural\pardirnatural\f0\fs24 \cf0 Hello, World!}"

# Convert RTF to plain text
plain_text = rtf_to_txt(rtf_text)
print(plain_text)  # Output: Hello, World!

Python - Example Usage #2

Convert an RTF File to Plain Text
Read file from the disk, convert its content to plain text using the rtf_to_txt function, and then save the result to a new text file:

from rtf_converter import rtf_to_txt

# Read RTF file
with open('sample.rtf', 'r', encoding='utf-8') as file:
    rtf_content = file.read()

# Convert RTF content to plain text
plain_text = rtf_to_txt(rtf_content)

# Save plain text to a new file
with open('output.txt', 'w', encoding='utf-8') as file:
    file.write(plain_text)

print("RTF has been successfully converted to plain text and saved as output.txt.")

Python - Handling RTF Conversion Errors

In case the RTF content is not formatted correctly, the rtf_to_txt function might raise an exception. Here is how you can handle such errors gracefully:

from rtf_converter import rtf_to_txt

# Sample RTF text (potentially incorrect format)
rtf_text = r"{\rtf1\ansi\Hello, World!}"

# Attempt to convert RTF to plain text
try:
    plain_text = rtf_to_txt(rtf_text)
    print(plain_text)
except Exception as e:
    print("An error occurred during the conversion:", str(e))

JavaScript - Example Usage

Convert a simple RTF string to plain text:

// Start test server (http-server)
// Save test javascript file as a module (.mjs)
// Import the rtfToTxt function from the rtf-converter npm package
import { rtfToTxt } from './node_modules/rtf-converter/rtf_converter.js';
    
// Sample RTF text
var rtfText = "{\\rtf1\\ansi\\ansicpg1252\\deff0\\deflang1033{\\fonttbl{\\f0\\fswiss\\fcharset0 Helvetica;}}{\\colortbl ;\\red255\\green0\\blue0;}\\pard\\tx720\\tx1440\\tx2160\\tx2880\\tx3600\\tx4320\\tx5040\\tx5760\\tx6480\\tx7200\\tx7920\\tx8640\\ql\\qnatural\\pardirnatural\\f0\\fs24 \\cf0 Hello, World!}";

// Convert RTF to plain text
var plainText = rtfToTxt(rtfText);
console.log(plainText);  // Output: Hello, World!

JavaScript - Example Usage #2 (With error handling)

Convert an RTF File to Plain Text
Read file from the disk (or fetch from a server), convert its content to plain text using the rtfToTxt function, and then save the result to a new text file:

<!-- Start test server (http-server) -->
<!-- Save test javascript file as a module (.mjs) -->


<!-- TEST.HTML -->

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
    <title>RTF Converter</title>

</head>
<body>
    <h1>RTF Converter</h1>
    <input type="file" id="rtfFile" accept=".rtf" />
    <button onclick="convertRTF()">Convert RTF to Text</button>
    <script src="script.mjs" type="module"></script>
</body>
</html>




<!-- SCRIPT.MJS -->

// Import the rtfToTxt function from the rtf-converter npm package
import { rtfToTxt } from './node_modules/rtf-converter/rtf_converter.js';

// Function to handle the conversion process
function convertRTF() {
    var fileInput = document.getElementById('rtfFile');
    var file = fileInput.files[0];
    if (!file) {
    alert('Please select an RTF file to convert.');
    return;
    }

    // Read the RTF content from the uploaded file
    var reader = new FileReader();
    reader.onload = function(event) {
    var rtfContent = event.target.result;

    // Convert RTF content to plain text using the rtfToTxt function
    var plainText = rtfToTxt(rtfContent);

    // Save plain text to a new file
    var blob = new Blob([plainText], { type: 'text/plain' });
    var link = document.createElement('a');
    link.href = window.URL.createObjectURL(blob);
    link.download = 'output.txt';
    link.click();

    console.log("RTF has been successfully converted to plain text and saved as output.txt.");
    };
    reader.readAsText(file);
}

// Make the convertRTF function globally accessible so that it can be called from the HTML file
window.convertRTF = convertRTF;

PHP - Example Usage

Convert a simple RTF string to plain text:

<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set('display_errors', 1);

require_once 'vendor/autoload.php';

use RtfConverter\RtfConverter;

$rtfText = "{\\rtf1\\ansi\\ansicpg1252\\deff0\\deflang1033
    {\\fonttbl{\\f0\\fswiss\\fcharset0 Helvetica;}{\\f1\\fswiss\\fcharset0 Arial;}}
    {\\colortbl ;\\red255\\green0\\blue0;\\red0\\green0\\blue255;}
    Hello, {\\f1\\b World}! This is {\\i italic} text. The — dash and the – dash are different.
    ‘ Quotes ’ are special too. Unicode: \\u8364 is the Euro symbol.
    Nested {\\b\\i bold and italic} text. Here's a list:
    \\list\\listtemplateid1\\listhybrid
    {\\listlevel\\levelnfc0\\leveljc0\\levelfollow0\\levelstartat1\\levelspace0\\levelindent0
    {\\*\\levelmarker\\fi-360\\li720\\jclisttab\\tx720 }{\\leveltext\\leveltemplateid1'\\uc0\\u8226 ;}
    {\\levelnumbers\\leveltemplateid2'\\u-3999 \\u8197 ;}}Hello from nested list!
    }";
    


echo "Before conversion\n";
$plainText = RtfConverter::rtfToTxt($rtfText);
echo "After conversion:\n";
echo $plainText . "\n";
echo "Type of output: " . gettype($plainText) . "\n";
echo "Length of output: " . strlen($plainText) . "\n";
?>

PHP - Example Usage #2

Convert an RTF File to Plain Text
Read file from the disk, convert its content to plain text using the rtfToTxt function, and then save the result to a new text file:

<?php
// Include the RtfConverter class
require_once 'vendor/autoload.php';

use RtfConverter\RtfConverter;

// Read RTF file
$rtfContent = file_get_contents('sample.rtf');

// Convert RTF content to plain text
$plainText = RtfConverter::rtfToTxt($rtfContent);

// Save plain text to a new file
file_put_contents('output.txt', $plainText);

echo "RTF has been successfully converted to plain text and saved as output.txt.";
?>

PHP - Handling RTF Conversion Errors

In case the RTF content is not formatted correctly, the rtfToTxt function might raise an exception. Here is how you can handle such errors gracefully:

<?php
// Include the RtfConverter class
require_once 'vendor/autoload.php';

use RtfConverter\RtfConverter;

// Sample RTF text (potentially incorrect format)
$rtfText = "{\\rtf1\\ansi\\Hello, World!}";

try {
    // Attempt to convert RTF to plain text
    $plainText = RtfConverter::rtfToTxt($rtfText);
    echo $plainText;
} catch (Exception $e) {
    echo "An error occurred during the conversion: " . $e->getMessage();
}
?>

#include &lt;iostream&gt;
#include &lt;string&gt;
#include "rtf_converter.cpp" // Assume this header contains the declaration of rtf_to_txt function

int main() {
    // Sample RTF text
    std::string rtfText = "{\\rtf1\\ansi\\ansicpg1252\\deff0\\deflang1033{\\fonttbl{\\f0\\fswiss\\fcharset0 Helvetica;}}{\\colortbl ;\\red255\\green0\\blue0;}\\pard\\tx720\\tx1440\\tx2160\\tx2880\\tx3600\\tx4320\\tx5040\\tx5760\\tx6480\\tx7200\\tx7920\\tx8640\\ql\\qnatural\\pardirnatural\\f0\\fs24 \\cf0 Hello, World!}";

    // Convert RTF to plain text

#include &lt;string&gt;
#include "rtf_converter.cpp" // Assume this header contains the declaration of rtf_to_txt function

int main() {
    // Read RTF file
    std::ifstream rtfFile("sample.rtf");
    std::string rtfContent((std::istreambuf_iterator&lt;char&gt;(rtfFile)), std::istreambuf_iterator&lt;char&gt;());
    
    // Convert RTF content to plain text
    std::string plainText = rtf_to_txt(rtfContent);
    
    // Save plain text to a new file
    std::ofstream outFile("output.txt");
    outFile &lt;&lt; plainText;
