Subject: Rich Text Files (RTF) Creation and Manipulation
> I have a need to manipulate RTF files with ColdFusion. While I have been
> successful in working with RTF files in Word, and then saving out for
> manipulation with CF, I need to be able to do some things that are a bit
> more complicated.
>
> Basically I need to create a multiple page document, in which there is a
> page header, and then a table of detail rows followed by a report footer.
> The document will run from 1 to N pages, and the number of detail rows
will
> be constant. I have been hacking at something all morning, and have
reached
> a dead-end on manipulating the table containing the detail rows.
>
> The problem I see is that Word can be a bit verbose in its creation of the
> RTF file, making it very difficult to determine the boundaries of "groups"
> within the document.
>
> Has anyone faced a similar situation? Any solutions? I am open to just
> about anything including using Perl or Java, etc.
