I have been playing with your demo of rtf exporting at http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/editor/examples/rtfexport/defaultcs.aspx
If I add a table and give the columns widths (or not) and I export it to rtf I get a table in the rtf that has the smallest width possible for the table columns. One letter per row. Is there someway to fix this?

Hi Josh,
The export to RTF feature of RadEditor, which is based on a free third party exporter tool, does not support exportation of table elements. Unfortunately, it is not an easy task to provide this feature in the current build of the editor and I cannot provide a firm estimate when this feature will be implemented.
Here are more details about the RTF export and import:
RadEditor uses two different free libraries to provide Import to RTF and Export to RTF features.
The first one used to provide RFT to HTML importation is available in this CodeProject's article: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/recipes/RtfConverter.aspx.
The library used for HTML to RTF exportation is available here http://www.codeproject.com/KB/recipes/RtfConverter.aspx.
As you can see both libraries are written by different developers and they are not fully compatible with each other.
Here is a list of know limitations of the Import and Export features of both libraries:
RFT to HTML (Import)
bold - supported. I was able to export bold formatting from the provided by you Bold.rtf file.
italic - supported
underline - supported
foreground and background colors - supported
table elements - unsupported
images- unsupported
indentations - unsupported
HTML to RTF (export)
bold - supported.
italic - supported
underline - unsupported
foreground and background colors - unsupported
table elements - partially supported
images- unsupported
indentations - supported

In your post below you have the link to the same article for Import to RTF and Export to RTF features.
Can you clarify if this is correct?
