Apparently Microsoft had a publcation containing those specs, unfortunately,
it does not seem to be available.
When I requested this publication from Microsoft Australia the first response
I got was that they would mail it to me, after a few weeks of recieving
no news, I called Microsoft again and was told that the publication was not
available and had not been for quite some time.
Microsoft then guided me to the Microsoft Word for Windows and OS/2
Technical Reference. ISBN 1-55615-290-6. (c) 1990. Chater 10 gives a
fair rendition of what you need to know about RTF, and almost enough
to build RTF files for windows help.
Conclusion: Step 1. Phone Microsoft and see if they will send you a copy
of the appropriate document (make sure it is actually available). Failing
that Step 2. purchase the technical reference manual.
