Any text that comes before the first heading in the rich text format (RTF) file is treated as front matter. The first object that is created has the value Front Matter in the Object Heading attribute. Another object is created below the Front Matter heading object, and the text that precedes the first heading in the RTF file is imported into the Object Text attribute.
RTF tables are imported as Rational® DOORS® tables. Pictures contained in table cells are not imported.
Importing a document in RTF format might use more resources than importing the same document as a Microsoft Word document.
When you import an RTF document, a number of module attributes are created. These attributes are used if the module is exported back to RTF, so that the resulting file has the same properties as the original.
