Importing rich text format files
Use the rich text format file importer to populate a module with the contents of a rich text format file. Unicode and other international data are included in the import.
About this task
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.
- Text that precedes the picture is inserted in the first object
- The picture is inserted in the second object
- Text that follows the object is stored in the third object
RTF tables are imported as IBM® Engineering Requirements Management DOORS® (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.
Procedure
