Converting WordStar To WordPerfect |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Solutions: WORDSTAR FILES There are four different WordStar programs. Each one contains different features and two of them write files in a different format. Below is a explanation of each. WordStar - The original version (3.3) of WordStar is the program that the Convert program was written for. WordStar Professional - Versions 4.0 and 5.0 are the same format as WordStar 3.3, but with two extra features; Indexing and Mail Merge. WP does not convert indexes or primary files. The secondary files can be converted through the Mail Merge option in Convert. WordStar 2000 - This is a different format from the original WordStar. There is an option in WordStar 2000 to save to the 3.3 WordStar format. After the internal conversion in WordStar is complete, the files can be brought into WordPerfect using the Convert Program. WordStar 2000 + - Same format as WordStar 2000. This format must be converted internally to Version 3.3 and then you can use the same procedure as with WordStar 2000 to convert files into WordPerfect. The following features are converted when the WordStar option is chosen. These features convert both ways except for Auto Outline which is from WordPerfect to WordStar only. Auto Outline Header Bold On/Off Overstrike Center Page Number Inserted Columns Set Lines Per Inch Comment Set Page Number Conditional End of Page Set Pitch Extended Characters Soft Hyphen Flush Right Soft Page Footer Soft Return Hard Hyphen Superscript/Subscript Hard Page Tab Hard Return Underline Hard Space |
