Fast and compact RTF to HTML5 converter library for the Java SE platform
ScroogeXHTML is a document conversion software library for the Java platform. It can be used to convert RTF (rich text format) documents to HTML5 standalone documents, or to HTML markup fragments, which can be embedded in other documents. This enables software applications to create HTML from existing RTF documents 'on demand'. The library provides configuration options, which control many aspects of the conversion.
ScroogeXHTML is available in two editions to choose from: a Jar edition, and a Source Code edition. Redistribution with single-user applications is free of charge. For usage with server-side applications, please read the Server Deployment License terms which are explained here.
Supports hyperlinks, bookmarks, multi-language and LTR/RTL text, field results and simple tables
Minimizes documents using CSS font definitions and generation of local font styles for text with different attributes
Includes an API for post-processing of the intermediate DOM tree to support additional fine tuning
Easy to use, compact and fast, and requires no external runtime libraries except the SLF4J logging facade
Picture data extraction, complimentary code for embedding BMP/JPG/PNG images as Data URIs
