Word Perfect has not been supported for a LONG time.  You are going to
run into a couple of problems getting it to work.

It uses a weird hacked up font server that had a date expiration
timebomb in it. You have to give it a wrapper to fake out the font
server to get it to work. (Do a search and you can probably find the
code.

The libraries it uses are pretty old. I don't know if it will even run
on a modern machine.  I have both versions that were released. I will
have to test it and see what happens.
