ScroogeXHTML for the Java platform version 6.3.1

Overview

ScroogeXHTML for the Java platform is a library which can convert a subset of the Rich Text Format (RTF) standard to HTML5 and XHTML.

It supports conversion of hyperlinks, simple tables, picture data extraction/data URI embedding, cascading style sheet (CSS) based document minimizing, and post processing/analysis of the intermediate DOM document.

ScroogeXHTML for the Java platform is easy to use and configure. It requires no external libraries besides the SLF4J (Simple Logging Facade for Java) API and the Java 7 SE runtime environment.

Online demo

The online demo converts uploaded RTF documents and displays them in your web browser. In case of unexpected conversion results, please contact Habarisoft customer support.
