If you want a Gedcom or Legacy file of it to merge with your own file, get back 
to the researcher and ask for it in that format.
You can attach the rtf file to the Source for it that you create. In the Media 
Gallery for the Master Source link as a Document.
Remember that their sources are not yours until you've seen the actual source 
they used.

I'd be wanting to hand enter it and check it as I went.

A fellow researcher had some of my ancestors' info (documented), and 
sent it to me via an .rtf file. How can I put that document into my 
Legacy (8.0) family tree, so I don't have to enter all of that data 
manually? (It looks just like the descendant list was made with the 
Legacy program.) If I have to convert it into a GEDCOM file first, how 
do I do that?

Thank you for taking the time to read about this. I hope you have an 
easy answer for me. 😀
