Plain text and Rich text

简单概述

Plain text就是纯文本，比如text格式， Rich text就是富文本，比如doc

Word processing documents can be categorized into two basic types: rich text and plain text. Rich text documents combine text with formatting information in a way that allows the text in those documents to use any mixture of fonts, fonts sizes, font styles (bold, italic, etc), and paragraph styles (centered, bulleted, etc). Rich text documents may also contain non-text content such as images. File formats used for rich text documents include RTF, DOC, and DOCX.

In contrast, plain text documents contain only plain, unformatted text. Plain text files are usually saved using the TXT file name extension, but many other extension are used as well depending on the plain text file’s intended purpose.

Rich Text File Formats

RTF File Format

The RTF file format is recognized by nearly all word processor programs including Word and WordPad. As such, it is the recommended file format for documents created using Jarte.

DOC File Format

The DOC file format is the format most commonly used by Microsoft Word. The format has evolved over time so there are actually a number of different formats that share the DOC name. Jarte can open files formatted in any of the various DOC format flavors. When saving files in DOC format, Jarte uses a flavor of the format that is compatible with older versions of Word.

DOCX File Format

The DOCX file format is the latest Microsoft Word format. It was introduced with the release of Word 2007. Jarte can open a DOCX file, however, any editing changes made to the file must be saved using RTF or DOC file format. Jarte requires the installation of Microsoft’s Office Compatibility Pack in order to open Word DOCX files.

Other File Formats

This paper does not support other rich text file formats (e.g., WordPerfect, Microsoft Works, etc) at this time. If you need to convert a document to/from a file format not supported by Jarte then use the free, online Media-Convert file conversion service.

Plain Text File Format

Plain text files are universally recognized by all word processors and text editors. They are often used for special purposes or in situations where formatted text is unsuitable. TXT is the most common file name extension used for plain text files, but many others are used as wel
