And my experience has been that TIFF is not always the same, especially Mac
vs. PC.

Postscript is fine for Macs, not so great for PC's, and probably unusable
for most older (pre-pc) machines. I'm not so worried about the images, but
the formatted text should be kept readable. I'm not super-familiar with
RTF, but isn't it just tags (like HTML)? If so, than a "reader"(?) could be
written, even for CP/M or TRS-DOS or whatever...
