About HTML and RTF

HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is the markup language web pages are built from — structured text with links, images, and styling defined by tags.

RTF (Rich Text Format) is a portable text format readable by virtually every word processor, supporting basic formatting like bold, fonts, and colors, but not macros or advanced layout.

What to expect: HTML and RTF support similar formatting, so most content and structure should carry over cleanly.
