Missing import filter for Word! Like "WordPerfect 5.1 (UNIX)" ...

[Dieter Fiebelkorn]

I'm missing much import filter on Office-Mac (specially WordPerfect 5.1 UNIX
for Word.mac). Office 95/97/2000/XP for windows have much more useful import
filter.

Why all this filter are missing in Office.mac?????
Or are all them included in an additional package?????

Hi Dieter,

This question has been answered over and over again in the Macintosh Word
newsgroup. Take a gander in that newsgroup for your answer.

Office does not ship with a converter because a converter has not been built
that does a good job with converting. Details are here:

The closest you'll get to a decent conversion is using Dataviz MacLink.
