How to convert rtf to gdoc file

Every time users import some document (like RTF) to Google Docs and save it there, a .gdoc link file is automatically created and saved  in their computer. This file then acts as link to the document stored online, but does not actually contain the document itself. So rtf to gdoc conversion is not doable in proper sense, but you can generate gdoc files this way.

Simply put, it is impossible to convert RTF to GDOC directly.
Thus, there is no so-called rtf to gdoc converter or a free online .rtf to .gdoc conversion tool.

Understanding RTF and GDOC file formats

RTF (Rich Text Format) is a file format developed by Microsoft for cross-platform document interchange. It allows the exchange of text files between different word processors and operating systems. RTF files can include text formatting, images, and other elements, making them versatile for document sharing.

GDOC is not a standalone file format but rather a shortcut file used by Google Drive to open Google Docs. When you create a document in Google Docs, it is stored in the cloud, and the GDOC file acts as a link to access the document online. This format is part of Google's suite of productivity tools, allowing for real-time collaboration and editing.

Converting an RTF file to a GDOC involves uploading the RTF file to Google Drive and opening it with Google Docs. This process converts the RTF content into a Google Docs document, which can then be accessed and edited online.
