Drop RTF files onto the box above, or click it to choose them. ToAny reads the file's contents to detect the type, so a wrong extension does not matter.
Press Convert and confirm the upload. The file is sent to the ToAny conversion server, converted to DOC and removed afterwards.
Save the DOC, or download everything as one ZIP if you converted several files.
Browsers cannot convert RTF to DOC reliably, so this pair runs on our server. You are asked before anything is sent, and the page says so plainly.
The uploaded file and the result are deleted once the conversion has finished. Nobody looks at them and they are not used for anything else.
No sign-up, no email address and no watermark on the result.
RTF supports only basic formatting and produces bulky files. DOC opens in copies of Word older than 2007. RTF is at home in basic formatted text that must open anywhere; DOC is the usual choice for compatibility with very old copies of Word.
RTF carries basic formatting such as bold, fonts and simple tables in a plain-text wrapper that nearly every word processor reads. It does not support modern layout features.
Opens in Word, WordPad, TextEdit, LibreOffice and most word processors
RTF converterDOC is the binary format used by Word 97 through Word 2003. Word replaced it with DOCX in 2007, and newer tools increasingly treat DOC as a legacy format.
Opens in Microsoft Word and LibreOffice; newer apps open it with warnings

Yes, for this conversion. Browsers cannot convert RTF to DOC reliably, so after you confirm, the file is uploaded over an encrypted connection to the ToAny conversion server, converted automatically and deleted once the conversion has finished. Most other conversions on ToAny run in your browser and upload nothing.
Text is kept. Formatting carries over only as far as DOC supports it.
Yes. Add as many as you like, convert them together and download each result or all of them as one ZIP.
The steps are the same everywhere because ToAny runs in the web browser: open this page in a current version of Chrome, Edge, Safari or Firefox, add the RTF file, press Convert and save the DOC. There is nothing to install.
Yes. Files sent to the conversion server are capped in size, and the page tells you when a file is too large to upload.
