I have a client who wants output from a reporting system in word format (Yuck!!). I've told them that we can out put it as RTF format. (We really just wanted to do an HTML report, but his boss doesn't like HTML!)
Don't forget to make the output read only...
You might want to talk to Sean Burke. I've seen from his use.perl.org that he's being doing a lot of RTF output recently. He also wrote RTF::Writer.This will be a fixed format report so seems to be a good idea to use TT2 or such like. I've had a look around CPAN for a RTF module and there are a couple. I need one that can generate tables - I don't think that RTF::Document doesn't - so I've opted for using RTF::Writer. Basically just wondering if anyone has any stories (good or bad) about using this module or combining it with TT2.
