It looks as if you are probably creating the text file. Could you change your output from with the tags, to output (write) as rtf files with the tags converted to rtf code for the style you want?

The string Ole is a [BOLD]great[UNBOLD] script teacher!
When saved as a rtf file is a text file named rtf with code something like:
{\rtf1\ansi\ansicpg1252\deff0\deflang1033\deflangfe1033{\fonttbl{\f0\fswiss\fcharset0 Arial;}}
{\*\generator Msftedit 5.41.15.1503;}\viewkind4\uc1\pard\f0\fs20 Ole is a \b great\b0 script teacher!\par
}


There is probably documentation on how to format text to rtf on the internet? Basically the headers would stay the same and you just write in your text with different tags \b great\b0 rather than [BOLD]great[UNBOLD].
