Which program should you use?

Your computer may be trying to use the wrong program to open the RTF file, or it may not have a program installed that can open the file. There are a few different programs you can use to open RTF files, including Rich Text Format File. Try downloading one or more of these from the manufacturer’s website.

What type of file is it?

The file type is the key to opening RTF files. RTF files are usually considered Text Files. You may already have a program on your computer that can open this type of file.

If the file type is unknown, you can find it in the file properties by following the steps below.

Windows:

1. Right-click the file and click “Properties”.
2. Look under “Type of File” for the file type.

Mac:

1. Right-click the file and click “Properties".
2. Look under “Kind” for the file type.

Why not try a universal file viewer?

A universal file viewer is a program that can open files with a wide range of extensions, depending on the file format. When you have RTF files you can’t open, a universal file viewer like File Magic (Download) can open it for you. Just remember that some files aren’t compatible with this type of program, and they will only open in binary format.
