Here's the first few lines of the html that unrtf generated [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp$ unrtf --html MTIRBS.rtf | less <html> <head> <!--- Translation from RTF performed by UnRTF, version 0.19.2 ---> <!--- For information about this marvellous program, ---> <!--- please go to http://www.gnu.org/software/unrtf/unrtf.html ---> <!--- document uses ANSI character set ---> <!--- font table contains 2 fonts total ---> <!--author: Crystal Reports---> </head> <body><font face="Courier New"><b><span style="font-size:9pt"><font color="#000000">For:</font></span></b></font><br> <font face="Courier New"><b><font size=2><font color="#000000">March 13, 2006</font></font></b></font><br> <font face="Courier New"><b><span style="font-size:9pt"><font color="#000000">WILLIAM LUECKE 440044,130000 </font></span></b></font><br> <font face="Courier New"><b><span style="font-size:9pt"><font color="#000000">,</font></span></b></font><br> <!--- Drawn Shape (ignored--not implemented yet)<!--- <br> <font face="Courier New"><b><span style="font-size:9pt"><font color="#000000">To:</font></span></b></font><br> ...
