I have no problem with the RTFD format.
The document is a bundle containing TXT.rtf and any attachment files.
The attachments are referenced in the rtf file with {\NeXTGraphic …} tags.

I am creating the documents I am trying to convert by starting with RTF and 
adding the graphics.

I was trying to avoid learning about the insides of a Word document.
I would rather leverage existing APIs if they exist.

thanks...
