Wouldn't that take a lot longer, and leave a lot more RTF files around?
Or am I misunderstanding your suggestion?

I'm trying to export approximately (3-6 notes per hour of class) * (3
hours of class per week) * (12 weeks per term) * (13 courses) - and
ideally that would be 13 big RTF files (one for each course). Based on
the one course I've half-exported so far, I'm looking at about 6 files per
course, with the 1Mb limit.

Thanks,
