What is an RTF file?
RTF – Rich Text Format document. RTF (Rich Text Format) is a plain text format with formatting codes. Almost every word processor reads it, which made it the usual way to exchange formatted text; it has no real support for modern features.
RTF Converter →What is a JPG file?
JPG – JPEG image. JPG is the most common photo format. A page converted to JPG is a picture of it: the text can no longer be selected, but every device shows it.

Good to know
- The RTF file is opened by LibreOffice. Fonts it does not have are replaced, so line and page breaks can differ a little from the program that made the file.
- Each page becomes a picture. A document with more than one page comes back as a ZIP with a JPG for each page, drawn at 150 dots per inch unless you choose otherwise in Options.
- The text in the pictures cannot be selected or searched.
Frequently asked questions
Is converting RTF to JPG free?
Yes. Everyone gets 25 free credits a day, with no account needed. Conversions on our server use one credit per started minute of work, so most cost a single credit. Credits reset at midnight UTC.
Are my RTF files uploaded anywhere?
This conversion runs on our server, because reading an RTF file needs LibreOffice, which does not run in a browser. Your file is sent over an encrypted connection, and both it and the result are deleted 72 hours after the conversion. The server has no internet access while it works on your file.
How large can the RTF file be?
Up to 1 GB per file. This conversion runs on our server, which accepts files up to that size.
Will the JPG look the same as the RTF?
The pages keep their text, pictures and layout. A RTF file that uses fonts the converter does not have is shown with similar ones, so lines can break in different places.
Can I convert several RTF files at once?
Yes. Add as many files as you like; they are converted one after another, and each one gets its own Download button.
Can I choose pages or quality for the JPG?
Yes. Click Options next to the file. Only the settings that make sense for RTF to JPG are shown, including which pages to convert.
