RE: [libreoffice-users] Importing/Converting WordPerfect Documents

Rich,
I have 3.4.4 installed on Windows Vista and have been working with WP files for the last few days.I 
do an "open with" and chose LibreOffice Writer so there is no confusion with MS Word that is on 
this system.
The WP document opens right up.  I don't want any underlying formatting to come in, so haven't 
really checked to see if any formatting was dropped, but you can check that out.
