I've only read about being able to generate a Word document if you are
running under Windows (which I am not). I gave up long ago trying to
figure out the rtf spec to auto generate Word documents. I do exactly
what you do, except I generate HTML instead and attach a .doc to the
file. The Word document actually ends up being larger than the HTML
document, but I don't do all that much formatting.
What you are looking for is something like the opposite of AntiWord,
unless AntiWord has a reverse option.

Hi,
I currently create my multipage docs by saving my word templates as
chunks
of rtf and then calling them as required as a very long string then
outputting them to an rtf file and renaming it as '*.doc'. It works
great
except for the filesize which comes out at 900k for a two-page
document.
Opening in Word and saving reduces the file down dramatically, but that
would prevent auto-generation and emailing - without human
intervention.
Does anyone know how to either create multipage docs in Word format to
begin
with, or to convert (on the fly) rtf to doc, or to save rtf as smaller
file?
