Hi,
Joining in this discussion... As far as I know, TransRTF is RTF import
(to OP), it does a conversion RTF to Ovation Pro DDL, and as with all
the 'trans loaders' it is a command line program which is usually called
by Ovation Pro.
Exporting RTF is what MakeRTF does.
As to Dave's original point, I've very sorry.
Word or RTF export is possible, but would always come a cropper over
things OP can do that Word etc. can't. It just never got done. That was
a big failing, the program would have been much more successful had we
done MS Word support at the time Techwriter did it - we spent our time
doing other less important things.
Third parties could have written these filters, but presumably decided
they were not commercially viable.
