All subsequent releases of Microsoft Word for Macintosh, as well as all Windows versions, can read and write in RTF format. The first RTF reader and writer shipped in 1987 as part of Microsoft Word 3.0 for Macintosh, which implemented the RTF version 1.0 specification. Richard Brodie, Charles Simonyi, and David Luebbert, members of the Microsoft Word development team, developed the original RTF in the middle to late 1980s. RTF should not be confused with enriched text or its predecessor Rich Text, nor with IBM's RFT-DCA (Revisable Format Text-Document Content Architecture), as these are different specifications. There are several different revisions of RTF specification portability of files will depend on what version of RTF is being used. Most word processors are able to read and write some versions of RTF. Prior to 2008, Microsoft published updated specifications for RTF with major revisions of Microsoft Word and Office versions. The Rich Text Format (often abbreviated RTF) is a proprietary document file format with published specification developed by Microsoft Corporation from 1987 until 2008 for cross-platform document interchange with Microsoft products.
