I am using WordPerfect 8 and Wordperfect 12. The documents generated by both these versions of WP are read without any problem by OOo version 1.1.4 and 1.9.65
I remember I had to install an aditional feature when I was using 1.2.x, but since I ame on version 1.1.4 I installed nothing at all, even so for version 1.9.65. If I inspect open -> file types WordPerfect is present. Could it be that by installing the new versions this possibilit� was installed based om my previous settings? Can someone who did not install this WP package verify this?
This is only for reading WP files of coarse, I dont think that OOo is able to write WP formats?
Anyway, WP11 can read .doc files verry well, so the latter should not be a problem?
Kind regards,
Freddy

I'mhaving to send back and forth with someone who uses Word Perfect 11.

Is there any way to open a Word Perfect file in Open Office?

Is there any way to save as a Word Perfect or is there another file type I
can save as so that it can be opened in Word Perfect?


in thi scase I'd use the .rtf.
Rich text Format. it is understandable by both.
There is also a Wp filter for loading WP files into OOo, But I do not think it will export in WP as yet.




I have also discovered, to my joy and delight, that kword can open .wed files. I have also discovered that I have better luck cutting and pasting from kword into OO than saving in a format that OO is supposed to be able to read.
