Some Framers are considering alternate applications, so compatibility
information and usability comparisons are useful.
As to possibly-embedded characters affecting line endings and similar
behavior, the InDesign option to hide/reveal hidden characters can help.

Recent versions of InDesign do not support RTF export. Here's the latest

Robert, my son checked and could not find an Export or Save As capability for
