Convert LIT to RTF

Understanding LIT and RTF file formats

The LIT file format, short for Microsoft Reader eBook, was developed by Microsoft for its Microsoft Reader software. It is primarily used for eBooks and is based on the Microsoft Compressed HTML Help format. LIT files are known for their compatibility with Microsoft Reader, but they are not widely supported by other eBook readers.

On the other hand, the RTF (Rich Text Format) is a document file format developed by Microsoft that allows for the exchange of text files between different word processors. RTF files can include text formatting, images, and other elements, making them versatile and widely supported across various platforms and applications.
