What is the Logictran RTF converter?
The Logictran RTF converter is a utility that allows customized translation of RTF’s to an alternative document format. Typically, but not required, this would be a tag based format such as HTML or XML. The converter is provided with ‘translation files’ that map to HTML, XHTML, XML (Docbook DTD), OEB, and LIT. HTML and XHTML formats may optionally produce Cascading Stylesheets (CSS). Extensive customization options exist, ranging from simply altering the background color, through splitting the output files along major heading boundaries, to completely changing the output format (eg to PML for display on devices running Palm OS). File based and string based translations are provided. Where string based translations may be used for such tasks as mapping database held RTF fragments to HTML without needing to write an intermediate file. The translation process may be embedded into applications written in C/C++/Visual Basic/Delphi/etc., or provided on an ASP page.
