Convert ODM to RTF

An ODM (OpenDocument Master Document) file is a master text document created by Apache OpenOffice Writer or another OpenDocument word processor. It contains multiple ODT files linked together, allowing users to manage and edit sections of a long document separately. This format is particularly useful for collaborative writing projects, as it simplifies the process of combining individual sections into a single cohesive document. The ODM file format was developed under the OASIS OpenDocument standard to promote interoperability across different word processing applications.

RTF, short for Rich Text Format, is a document file format developed by Microsoft in 1987. It allows users to transfer formatted text and images between different word processors and platforms, ensuring consistency in document appearance. RTF supports basic text formatting, such as bold, italics, and various font types, making it a versatile choice for simple document exchange. Its historical significance lies in its widespread adoption for cross-platform document sharing before the advent of more complex formats like DOCX and PDF. RTF remains relevant for applications that require straightforward, platform-independent text formatting.
