I use `catdoc' which works quiet good (for both *doc and *rtf).
`catdoc' is available as a package for Centos and Debian.
Here is a script I use:
catdoc -d8859-8 "$1" | \
fribidi --charset ISO8859-8 --width 90 --rtl > "${1}_h_txt"
nohup xmessage \
-background yellow -foreground Black -center \
-file "${1}_h_txt" -title "$1" -xrm "$1.Scroll:whenNeeded" \
-font "-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--13-120-75-75-c-80-iso8859-8" \
-buttons "$SPC E x i t $SPC ס י ו ם $SPC" > /dev/null &
sleep 1 # allow xmessage to start
rm "${1}_h_txt" # remove if not used

Ehud:
Thanks for the tip, but I can't get any sensible output. I ran:
catdoc -a -d8859-8 invoice150711.rtf | fribidi --charset ISO8859-8
--width=80 --rtl
and I get 188 empty lines. :-(
Am I missing something?
Regards,
Micha
