Once again disregard, I figured it out.
A hello world with RtfWriter2:
<cfset docPath = expandPath("testDoc.rtf")>
<cfset myFile =
CreateObject("java","java.io.FileOutputStream").Init(CreateObject("java","java.io.File").Init(docPath))
/>
<cfscript>
paths = arrayNew(1);
/*
This points to the jar we want to load.
Could also load a directory of .class files
*/
paths[1] = expandPath("iText-2.1.2u.jar");
paths[2] = expandPath("iText-rtf-2.1.2u.jar");
//create the loader
loader = createObject("component", "javaloader.JavaLoader").init(paths);
myDoc = loader.create("com.lowagie.text.Document").init();
myRTF = loader.create("com.lowagie.text.rtf.RtfWriter2");
thisRTF = myRTF.getInstance(myDoc, myFile);
myDoc.open();
myPara = loader.create("com.lowagie.text.Paragraph");
para = myPara.init("Hello World");
myDoc.add(para);
myDoc.close();
</cfscript>
