RICH Text Format to LRF conversion is the process of transforming a document saved in RTF (Rich Text Format), which stores formatted text and basic layout, into LRF (Broadband eBook format used by Sony Reader) so it can be read on devices that support .lrf. The conversion maps RTF character styles, paragraphs, images and simple layout into the LRF eBook structure while preserving readable text flow and basic formatting for e-readers.
