I've seen some rtf2ps functionality on linux.  Looks like it might be a
bear to port directly to the iSeries.

There are tons of links on google about printing rtf from java.

Lastly, word is supposed to be scriptable via it's activex contorol.  It
seems that you could pass the document to a pc with word installed on
it, and then force the document to load and print by remote command.
