How do I convert an RTF file to MOBI?

Upload your RTF file to the converter, choose MOBI as the output format, then click 'Convert'. The tool reads heading styles to build a table of contents, strips excess layout code, and outputs a compressed MOBI file. Download it directly to your Kindle or read it in the Kindle app. If the RTF contains large images, resize them first to speed up conversion.

Why convert RTF to MOBI instead of keeping RTF?

RTF is a fixed-layout document format meant for word processors; MOBI is a reflowable eBook format for Amazon's Kindle ecosystem. Converting lets readers adjust text size, font, and line spacing on any Kindle device. Because MOBI uses PalmDOC compression, the converted file is often 20-50% smaller than the original RTF, and it gains native Kindle features like bookmarks and TOC navigation.

What happens to my RTF formatting (bold, headings, images) when converting to MOBI?

Inline character styles—bold, italic, underline, and hyperlinks—are preserved exactly. Heading 1-3 paragraphs are mapped to MOBI heading classes and auto-added to the table of contents. Images are recompressed to JPEG/PNG and constrained to the screen width. However, the fixed page layout (margins, tab stops, absolute positioning) is discarded because MOBI reflows text dynamically; that's the main difference between a print document and an e-book.
