  "note": "RTF (Rich Text Format) is a widely supported text format that stores formatting and embedded objects, but it is less feature-rich than DOC. Converting RTF to DOC allows for advanced Word-specific features, better handling of complex tables, and improved compatibility with Microsoft Office macros and styles. However, some simple RTF features may be reinterpreted when mapped to DOC formatting, especially if they rely on older font codes or non-standard styles.",
