rtf2LaTeX is a filter built on Paul DuBois' RTF reader that converts
RTF (Microsoft's Rich Text Format) into LaTeX.
rtf2LaTeX expends a good deal of effort in an attempt to make the resulting
LaTeX maintainable and modifiable.

Usage: 

   rtf2LaTeX [options] [RTF-file]

Your options are:
       -c      No character formatting stuff
       -C file Use another translation-file for characters above 128
       -d      Use WORD formates within special WORD styles like heading, 
               footnote text, ...
       -H      Use LaTeX header and footer, not as default WORD header
       -h      Help message
       -L file Use another translation-file for specilal WORD styles 
               like heading, footer, footnote text, ...
       -n      Use \hfil\break instead of \\ for making a new line
       -p      No paragraph formatting stuff
       -r      No left or right skip
       -s      No tab stops
       -t      No formatting in tables
       -T f    Decrease-factor for the cell-width (default:0.7)
       -u      Change underline to italic
       -v[#]   Turn on verbose messages; the higher #, the more messages
       -V      Print the version number

If you omit the filename rtf2LaTeX will read standard input.

Read the man page for further details of the usage.
If there are any LaTeX errors or warnings,
have a look at the section troubleshooting.
A little bit of documentation is in one of the files interna.rtf or interna.tex
