I would try this. a) Create an invisible CRichEditCtrl (or use a visible one). b) Set the text with SetWindowText (or type or paste it into your control). c) To get the Text in RTFFormat use StreamOut Method. There is a small sample in MSDN for this. If you are not using MFC: a) Create a Window of richedit class. (CreateWindow(...) b) use WM_SETTEXT c) send EM_STREAMOUT - Message to the created window

It depends what you are trying to do. RTF is all readable text - create a "Hello world" document using word pad and save it as RTF, then open it using Notepad. That's a minimal RTF document. If you want to make your own RTF documents from a program, use the contents of that Wordpad-generated file as a basis, just replace the "Hello world" with whatever you need to output from your program. As I said, it depends what you are trying to do in the RTF document.
