Assuming you are trying to do this yourself for learning purposes, you don’t want to use a library to do it for you:
Basically you need to write a program which holds in memory either a string with RTF markup, or a DOM-like data tree. Using the RTF specification, you should write a flat (text) file marked up properly and with a .rtf extension. Just the same as if you were writing an HTML file.
