The generated RTF strictly conforms to version 1.6 of the RTF 
specification (compatible with MS-Word 2000+), no matter the *XSL-FO* 
extensions (e.g. the "xfc:outline-level" extension attribute, 
https://www.xmlmind.com/foconverter/_distrib/doc/user/implementation.html#xfc_outline-level) 
you may use.

Note that aside MS-Word, most word processors (e.g. LibreOffice) have 
less than average support for RTF.

Sorry but if the Evaluation Edition has some flaws then Professional 
Edition has exactly the same flaws.

The *ONLY* difference between Evaluation Edition and Professional 
Edition is that  Evaluation Edition generates output containing random 
duplicate letters. See

In order to learn about the possible limitations and specificities of 
the product, please take a look at:
