MacWrite II Document (.mcw)

The MCW file extension stands for MacWrite II Document, a text file format created by Apple for its MacWrite II word processing program, which is now discontinued. These documents store text and basic page formatting information and can be opened by MacWrite II, ClarisWorks, and AppleWorks. Given the discontinuation of these programs, users may need to convert MCW files to more common formats like DOC or DOCX for compatibility with modern word processors.

Rich Text Format (.rtf)

RTF, short for Rich Text Format, is a document file format developed by Microsoft in 1987. It allows users to transfer formatted text and images between different word processors and platforms, ensuring consistency in document appearance. RTF supports basic text formatting, such as bold, italics, and various font types, making it a versatile choice for simple document exchange. Its historical significance lies in its widespread adoption for cross-platform document sharing before the advent of more complex formats like DOCX and PDF. RTF remains relevant for applications that require straightforward, platform-independent text formatting.
