- Description
- An RTF file is a common text file format that supports "rich text." It includes several types of text formatting, such as bold type, italics, different fonts and font sizes, and custom tab settings. RTF files also support objects and images, such as .JPG and .PNG files, saved within the text file.
- A DOTM file is a Word Open XML Macro-Enabled Document Template used by Microsoft Word, part of the Microsoft Office suite. It is a template file that contains default layouts and settings for a document, including macros, which are small programs that automate repetitive tasks. Unlike standard Word templates (.dotx), which do not support macros, DOTM files enable users to include custom macros that can be executed within the document. This feature is particularly useful for creating standardized documents that require specific automated functions.
