I have a multi-level outline that I would like to export as an indented rtf for a report. Each item of the outline contains text which I would like to be indented according to its position in the outline. I know the tree's structure can easily be copied and pasted into a word file but I need to have a way to do this with its text too.

I might have forgotten how. Is this possible to do?

Thank you.

You can't export both item title and text directly to RTF, but you could export to HTML -- see https://kinook.com/Forum/showthread.php?t=2104 -- and then convert to RTF. I was able to open the .html file in LibreOffice and save as .rtf.

This was very helpful. Thank you. For me, the process was even simpler.

1. File | Export
2. Items to an XML (OML) file
3. Make sure item text is the only box checked
4. Complete the destination, check "Export child items" and check "Open Explorer window after export" and finally select "Static Outline" as the HTML conversion.
5. Click "Finish" to run the export
6. Open the exported html file in LibreOffice and save as rtf.

Again, thank you for your guidance.
