I also am looking for a way to read these crazy formatted "rtf" 
invoices. It seems that lots of travel agents use the same maarechet. I 
tried the unrtf tip, but couldn't get anything useful. Here's the output:

micha at akev:~/Documents$ unrtf --text Invoice150711.rtf
This is UnRTF, version 0.19.2
By Dave Davey and Marcos Serrou do Amaral
Original Author: Zach T. Smith
Processing Invoice150711.rtf...
### Translation from RTF performed by UnRTF, version 0.19.2

(lots more Warning lines)
...

### font table contains 48 fonts total
Done.
471 words were hashed.

Any additional ideas?
