The additional difference is that an RTF is, as the name implies, a tree
fragment. Whereas a node-set is just an unordered arrangement of nodes, an
RTF is an arranged set of nodes, maintaining the concept of tree-structure
with parents, children and so forth.

Just a guess, but make sure you're using <xsl:copy-of> instead of
<xsl:value-of>, since copy-of deals with RTF's without flattening them
into strings...
