The RTF specs are at http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q86999 I encourage you to open your RTF in a text editor and see how your images are being encoded. The RTF markup looks messy, but its easy to read once you've become familiar with it. To get started, save a "Hello Wor(l)d" document as RTF and view it. Then add an image, save it, and view it. RTF is not meant to be a general purpose storage format. These days most people use RTF as a document exchange method (like XML) where the RTF format can be parsed by other systems that need to import the content of a document. If you need an efficient storage format, use MS's binary file format.
