SAPscript texts are stored in Interchange Text Format (ITF). SAPscript offers conversion programs for the text file formats Rich Text Format (RTF) and ASCII as an interface to other word processors. And you can convert the edited text to HTML.
RTF files contain all the formatting information for the text and can be both interpreted and generated by all common word processors.
In ASCII files the text is not formatted. The only layout element is the line feed. Various character sets are possible.
HTML files contain the entire formatting information of a text and can therefore be displayed using any HTML3.X browser (Netscape, MS Internet Explorer, and so on). Control commands, symbols, and include texts are resolved, provided that this can be done without processing the form (that is, without using the composer).
When converting RTF files, you should execute a format conversion from the document template to the SAPscript paragraph and character formats or vice versa. This allows you to replace non-existant paragraph and character formats and to avoid the fomat names to be copied directly.
For more information, see SAPscript Format Conversion.
