You can try the kit as alternative for default one. It supports images and text as well.

What kind of information do you want to extract? RTF is a really simple format, you should be able to get most information without using a real parser but regular expressions.

Search vor `\picwgoal
` `\pichgoal – ooxi Oct 24 '13 at 12:06` for example `\picwgoal1035\pichgoal1035` for image dimensions. Getting the position of text is quite hard since it depends on page format. The position can be found in `\posy ` / `\posx `
