PHP is not supposed to be used to convert files. It's a scripting language for web sites.

What you need is a) a software which can convert from RTF to PDF and can be called through command line and b) a batch script which calls the software.

An example of such software is GhostScript.

Since you didn't specify any information in you question, further help is impossible.

You can do it with open office: Download http://www.artofsolving.com/opensource/pyodconverter DocumentConverter.py and palce it in the same folder with soffice.exe. Then start OOffice as a service ( soffice "-accept=socket,host=localhost,port=8100;urp;StarOffice.ServiceManager" -headless -norestore -nologo -nofirststartwizard ) and then in PHP use it like this:

exec('python "path\to\this\file\DocumentConverter.py" path_to_doc\test.rtf path_to_output_pdf\test.pdf"');
