There are no set guidelines on how to achieve this. In this article we will outline simple processes to use when converting documents from one source such as Word to WordPerfect. In this article we will focus on converting from Multiple Word 97, Word 2000 and WordPerfect 20002 documents, then inserting them into a single document created by a specially formatted template. Overview of the conversion process To convert multiple documents from multiple sources to a single document type the documents must be prepared to be converted. Once the documents are prepared they can all be inserted into the final document that is created off a Template. With this method conversion problems will be avoided. The process is simply;
Converting Word 97 documents to Word 2000 documents The first step is to convert any Word 97 documents to Word 2000 documents. Go through the document and ensure the formatting is correct on all three levels of formatting.
Remove any unnecessary fonts or styles The Word 2000 documents are now ready to be converted to WordPerfect 2002 Pre conversion cleanup All documents must be prepared beforehand for conversion before being converted to WordPerfect 2002 WPD format
Once all this is done the document is then ready for conversion into WordPerfect (WPD) format. Converting Word 2000 documents to WordPerfect 2002 Go through the document and ensure the formatting is correct on all three levels of formatting.
Now the documents are in one single file format, WordPerfect (WPD). They are ready to be inserted into the single document created by the template. Inserting the multiple WordPerfect 2002 documents into the New final document The final document is created from a template. This template will contain all the proper styles formatting and fonts. Inside the new file navigate to each location that the multiple documents are to be inserted. Insert the desired document. If you are prompted to overwrite the style select no this will ensure that no new styles are introduced to the document. There should be no new styles if the document was prepared and converted properly in prior steps. Once you have inserted the documents into the new document go through and recheck the document a final time for any changes that should not have occurred. What to do next Now that the document is created it should be saved and an original copy of it and all the converted files stored in a safe location until the document receives the final approval. As you do more and more conversions of this sort it will become easier and quicker as you will get to know the trouble spots in the conversions. Remember to always convert Word documents to the most recent Word version available. Check for conversion problems, fix those problems convert these documents to multiple WordPerfect documents fix, any conversion issues and then insert them into the new file created by the template. This will help convert many different versions of documents into the final one for distribution. This process will ensure that the conversions of documents from multiple versions of Word and documents from WordPerfect 2002 can be converted into one document with minimal conversion problems. Graphics When importing or exporting a graphic associated with a document, the use of the graphic filter accomplishes one of the following:
If the graphic is not coming in correctly or not appearing properly try the following.
