The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: A customer wants to know if the Table of Contents (TOC) and Index codes from a WordPerfect 5.1 for DOS file convert to PageMaker 4.2 for Macintosh? Solutions: PageMaker does not display or use codes. If you create a WP 5.1 document with a TOC or an Index and then generate the document, WP will generate the text to complete the TOC or Index. This text will convert to PageMaker when using the PageMaker import option for WP 5.0/5.1 documents. The various levels will be indented and page numbers will be tabbed (in other words the formatting comes across).

IMPORTANT! The WP 5.1 text will probably not wrap in the exact same places in PageMaker. This means that the TOC and Index page numbers could be wrong. Because of this, users may be better off recreating the TOC and Index using the PageMaker features.

How/Why:
The conversion filter converts text, attributes, and most formatting.
