Thank you that was the information I needed. I have looked at the Gnome 
office site and AbiWord has the export filters for :     
    * DocBook (XML DTD only)
    * XHTML 1.0
    * LaTeX
    * Palm (PDB)
    * RTF (including RTF for older applications)
    * TXT
    * UTF8
    * WML
    * GZipped AbiWord
    * Psion Word and Text documents.

Is the RTF mentioned above the Same RTF mentioned by Chris Croughton?

If so should I have done something to the attachment to make it readable?
