Open Source Open Platform Converter to RTF Converter

I need a doc to rtf converter that will run from the command line and from a Perl script (I know I will need to use system () to run the converter). Any recommendations. Something that can be compiled, statically linked so that it can run on workstations as standalone binaries would be even more useful.

I want to keep things like headers, ordered and bulleted lists and tables. All the rest does not matter.

I haven't used it for .DOC in .RTF, but Apache POI is probably a pretty good bet.

If you can go from doc to docx, then you can use docx4j to generate RTF with iText or FOP (I haven't tested the RTF output of iText or FOP, so I'm not sure how they will handle tables).



As far as going from doc to docx is concerned, docx4j has basic proof of this using poi hwpf.
