Why convert PS to RTF?
- The new format may support a feature the source container does not.
- The result can be reviewed without changing the file that other people still use.
- RTF is more appropriate for the target application, device, or delivery channel than PS.
- Compatibility is the main reason to convert when another person or service cannot open the source.
Will quality change?
Text may become editable, but page breaks and spacing can differ from the original. Review the output before sharing it. Keep the source if you may need to adjust the conversion later.

- Batch support

- Review the converted file in the destination application before deleting the source.
- Batch results should be spot-checked before publication or delivery.
Platform compatibility
The output is a RTF file. Use an application or device that accepts that format, and test the result on the destination platform if compatibility is critical.
When not to convert
- Do not use a converted file as the legal or signed original when signatures or metadata must be preserved.
- Do not overwrite the source; keep both versions until the output has been approved.
- Avoid repeated lossy conversions when quality matters; start from the highest-quality source available.
