Good morning, I need to read a text file. How come when I open it (running the script) it says this? The text file is type RFT{\rtf1\ansi\ansicpg1252\cocoartf2636 \cocoatextscaling0\cocoaplatform0{\fonttbl\f0\fswiss\fcharset0 Helvetica;} {\colortbl;\red255\green255\blue255;} {\*\expandedcolortbl;;} \paperw11900\paperh16840\margl1440\margr1440\vieww11520\viewh8400\viewkind0 \pard\tx566\tx1133\tx1700\tx2267\tx2834\tx3401\tx3968\tx4535\tx5102\tx5669\tx6236\tx6803\pardirnatural\partightenfactor0 \f0\fs24 \cf0 But even with in .txt it gives me this long string. I think it is a formatting problem . thank you
I don't see the script you are talking about but it is normal to find those strings inside a file of type '.rtf'. RTF documents are not simple text documents (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rich_Text_Format) so if you want to extract the text contained in these documents you will need to use a library that can do this (eg: https://pypi.org/project/striprtf/) ...or write a parser yourself. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
