RTF parsing functionality was never finished and was abandoned by its developer (who wasn't afiliated with any of the iText companies at all). Currently, I don't know anybody who is willing to offer RTF support for any iText library. Zachary used to be blacklisted because of misbehavior on the mailing list in 2010. He apologized and his account was restored. Unfortunately, he still confuses free software with gratis software, spreading misconceptions about the nature of open source as a business model. We think that, in spite of the fact that he has contacted sales more than once, he's not interested in doing business with us at all. -- Doing More with Less: The Next Generation Virtual Desktop What are the key obstacles that have prevented many mid-market businesses from deploying virtual desktops?

Currently, I don't know anybody who is willing to offer RTF support for any iText library. My version of Google tells me that there are plenty of RTF to XML parsers available, some of them with a commercial-compatible F/OSS licence, some even written in Java. I suggest that Zachary investigates that path first, and once he has parsed his RTF into XML, he can use iText to create a PDF.

[iText-questions] Question about iText PDF and RTF.
old RTF implementation questions. I am trying to get hold of the java .jar file (and any further jars required) for the most recent, up to date version of the java iText liibrary which was/is entirely open source and did not have any requirement at all for remuneration to iText if leveraged in a commercial development context. I had been of the impression that the version I wanted was 2.17, itext-2.1.7.jar which was non-payment available for use in commercial projects that leverage the library. I have hit a problem: that the RTF contents and implementation code doesn't seem to exist at all in this file. For example, com.lowagie.text.rtf.parser.RtfParser class doesn't exist at all. My javadocs for this tell me that the class file of this was first available in version 2.08. So, does the present iText lib support a non renumeration model option (ie is it not dual licensed, requiring a commercial license in a commercial context)? -- Doing More with Less: The Next Generation Virtual Desktop What are the key obstacles that have prevented many mid-market businesses from deploying virtual desktops?
