Re: [SLUG] Who owns the .rtf format?


I think microsoft "own" it, however the specification for it is publicly
viewable.

For example:-
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/dnrtfspec/html/rtfspec.asp

It's more of a markup-style format rather than a binary (or
dump-a-big-chunk-of-whatever's-in-memory-at-moment) format like some of
their others.

Cheers....Steve.
