You can include RTF to ODS conversion feature within your C++ applications easily. By using feature-rich, powerful and easy to use document manipulation and conversion API Aspose.Words for C++ , you can export RTF to HTML. After that, by using Aspose.Cells for C++ , you can convert HTML to ODS. Both APIs come under Aspose.Total for C++ package.
C++ API to Convert RTF to ODS or Online App
Get Started with C++ File Automation APIs
Install from command line as nuget install Aspose.Total.Cpp
or via Package Manager Console of Visual Studio with Install-Package Aspose.Total.Cpp
.
Alternatively, get the offline MSI installer or DLLs in a ZIP file from downloads .
Access RTF Document Properties via C++
Aspose.Words for C++ also allows you to access document properties of RTF file and lets you take an informed decision before the conversion process. To access document properties you can use BuiltInDocumentProperties to obtain built-in properties and CustomDocumentProperties to obtain custom properties. The following code example shows how to enumerate all built-in and custom properties in a document.
Save ODS File to Stream via C++
After converting RTF to ODS, Aspose.Cells for C++ enables you to save your document to stream. To save files to a stream, create a MemoryStream or FileStream object and save the file to that stream object by calling the IWorkbook object’s Save method. Specify the desired file format using the SaveFormat enumeration when calling the Save method.

What is RTF File Format
Introduced and documented by Microsoft, the Rich Text Format (RTF) represents a method of encoding formatted text and graphics for use within applications. The format facilitates cross-platform document exchange with other Microsoft Products, thus serving the purpose of interoperability. This capability makes it a standard of data transfer between word processing software and, hence, contents can be transferred from one operating system to another without losing document formatting. The file format specifications are available by Microsoft for public download and can be referred to from developer's perspective. One of the key advantages of RTF is its ability to preserve formatting across different word processors and text editors. This means that you can create an RTF document in one application and be confident that it will look the same when opened in another application, even if the two applications use different default fonts, font sizes, and other formatting options.

OpenDocument Spreadsheet (ODS) is a file format for spreadsheets, typically used by open source office suites such as Apache OpenOffice and LibreOffice. ODS files are based on the OpenDocument XML format and use the .ods file extension.ODS files can store data in a range of cells, which can be formatted using a variety of cell styles. ODS files can also contain charts and other graphical elements.ODS files are typically smaller than comparable files in other spreadsheet formats, such as Microsoft Excels .xlsx format. This can be an advantage when sharing files, as smaller files are easier to transfer and take up less storage space.ODS files can be opened and edited in a variety of office suites and spreadsheet programs. Many programs can also export data to the ODS format, making it a convenient way to share data between different software applications.
