The Portable Document Format (PDF) is a universal file format that comprises characteristics of both text documents and graphic images which makes it one of the most commonly used file types today. The reason PDF is so widely popular is that it can preserve original document formatting. PDF files always look identical on any device or operating system.
How to open a PDF file?
Most people head right to Adobe Acrobat Reader when they need to open a PDF. Adobe created the PDF standard and its program is certainly the most popular free PDF reader out there. It's completely fine to use, but I find it to be a somewhat bloated program with lots of features that you may never need or want to use.
Most web browsers, like both Chrome and Firefox, can open PDFs themselves. You may or may not need an add-on or extension to do it, but it's pretty handy to have one open automatically when you click a PDF link online. I highly recommend SumatraPDF or MuPDF if you're after something a bit more. Both are free.

Rich Text Format (RTF) is a document format Microsoft created so that formatted text could move between different word processors and operating systems. An RTF file is plain text with formatting written as readable control codes, so bold, italics, fonts, colours, tables, and images survive the journey while the file stays open and inspectable. That universality made RTF the safe middle ground for decades, and virtually every word processor ever written can read it.
How to open an RTF file?
RTF opens with no extra software on any system: WordPad and Word on Windows, TextEdit on macOS, and LibreOffice or Google Docs everywhere else.
Because the format is plain text underneath, you can also open an RTF in any text editor to inspect its markup directly. Microsoft stopped developing RTF in 2008, and it does not support modern features such as tracked changes or comments, so convert important documents with our RTF to DOCX tool.
