Re: History; code

We have no completely

accurate conversion filters:
Adobe--criminally--removed the ones for

XyWrite 4 when it bought out Word for Word, and there are serious bugs
in

the WordPort ones. And they don't convert Use Styles. (That is
really

unfortunate, since Styles, in any word processor, are a much more
logical

way to format documents than the ad hoc changes that most people
use

instead--not, perhaps, surprisingly, given how awkward and buggy
styles

are in Word and WordImPerfect. Anyone ever try to use WP's auto
numbers?)

Not that this is an answer to the problem, but I notice that Word Perfect
10 has a conversion filter for XyWrite 3+ and 4+.   I'm sure it
doesn't convert perfectly but I was surprised that they included the
conversion file in the 2002 version of the suite.
