Problem

Symptoms: The readme.cv file for WordPerfect 6.1 for Dos shows changes and clarifications about the conversion feature. Solutions: ================================================================= README.CV 08/08/95 ================================================================= This README file contains information not found in on-line Help or in other *.DOC files concerning ConvertPerfect 2.0. ConvertPerfect is a conversion program that works with WordPerfect 6.1 to convert your files to and from specific formats. Two conversion documentation files (RTF.DOC and WP5X.DOC) are installed with WordPerfect 6.1. These *.DOC files are in DOS text format. They document the conversion of codes between WordPerfect 6.1 and Rich Text Format (RTF), and also between WordPerfect 6.1 and WordPerfect 5.1/5.2. See the end of this README file for information on ordering additional format- specific README files. Before you start ConvertPerfect, you need to set both Files and Buffers in your CONFIG.SYS file to a minimum of 20. Also, to use a mouse with ConvertPerfect, you must use either MOUSE.COM or install MOUSE.SYS. There is no printed documentation for ConvertPerfect 2.0. To display online information about ConvertPerfect, press Help (F1). You can display context-sensitive Help as well as an index of features. To learn about specific conversion drivers, select Insert Job from the main ConvertPerfect dialog box, tab to either the Source File Format or the Target File Format list box, highlight a driver, then press Help. After you convert a file, you need to retrieve it into the target program and then save it in order to validate the new file format. Otherwise, further file conversions may not be supported. You can use ConvertPerfect on networks. For information regarding network capabilities, review the use of the /PS and /U switches under Command Line Switches in online Help. While you are using ConvertPerfect, information on Customer Support is available under Customer Support in the online Help index. When you set up ConvertPerfect 2.0 under Shell 4.0, make sure the Shell 3.x Compatibility check box is marked in the setup of the ConvertPerfect menu item. To select this option in Shell 4.0, highlight the ConvertPerfect menu item on the Shell desktop, press F6, choose Advanced Options, check the Shell 3.x Compatibility box, then choose OK. When you convert files that contain spreadsheets, keep in mind that a spreadsheet with many named ranges can cause memory errors on low memory configurations when you import it into a table. You may be able to avoid the memory problems by retrieving the file (Shift+F10) instead of importing it. To display a list of ConvertPerfect startup options and the command line syntax for them, enter CV/? at the DOS prompt. Additional conversion drivers are available from WordPerfect. The Additional Conversion Drivers 1 disk contains drivers for the following formats (conversion driver names that are followed by an asterisk are installed with the original installation of WordPerfect 6.1 and its conversion files): Format Driver Name =================================================== Ami Pro 1.x, 2.x, 3.0 CVDA12X.CVX ASCII Standard CVDASC.CVX* ASCII Stripped CVDASC.CVX* IBM DCA FFT CVDRFT.CVX* IBM DCA RFT CVDRFT.CVX* Delimited Text CVDASC.CVX* Excel 2.1, 3.0, & 4.0 CVDEXCL.CVX* Graphics BMP CVDBMP.CVX* WPG1 CVDWPG1.CVX* WPG2 CVDWPG2.CVX* CVDWG2S.CVX* CVDWG2D.CVX* CAL CGM CVDCGM.CVX* AutoCAD DXF CVDDXF.CVX* Adobe EPS 2.0 & 3.0 CVDEPS.CVX* HPGL CVDHPGL.CVX* Lotus PIC CVDLPIC.CVX* Micrographix Designer 3.1 CVDMGX.CVX PCX CVDPCX.CVX* Macintosh PICT 1.x & 2.x CVDPICT.CVX* Truevision TGA (TARGA) CVDTGA.CVX TIFF CVDTIF.CVX* Windows Metafile (WMF) CVDWMF.CVX* WP Presentations CVDPR20.CVX* CVDWGES.CVX* CVDWGED.CVX* Kermit CVDCOM.CVX Lotus 123 1A, 2.01, 2.3, 2.4, 3.0, 3.1 CVDL123.CVX* Lotus 123 for Windows 1.0 Multimate 3.3, 4.0, CVDMM.CVX Multimate Advantage 3.6, Multimate Advantage II 1.0 MS Word for Windows 1.x CVDWW1X.CVX MS Word for Windows 2.x CVDWW2X.CVX* MS Word for Windows 6.x CVDWW6X.CVX* MS Windows Write 3.0, 3.1 CVDWRT.CVX MS Word 4.0, 5.x CVDWD5X.CVX* Navy DIF CVDNDIF.CVX Office Writer 6.0, 6.1, 6.11, 6.2 CVDOW.CVX PlanPerfect 3.0, 5.x CVDPL5X.CVX* Professional Write 2.x DOS CVDPW.CVX Quattro Pro 3.0, 4.0, 5.5 CVDQPRO.CVX* Quattro Pro for Windows 1.0 CVDQPWX.CVX* Spreadsheet DIF CVDSDIF.CVX Sprint 1.x CVDSP1X.CVX VolksWriter 3.x CVDVW.CVX WordPerfect 4.2 CVDWP42.CVX* WordPerfect 5.0, 5.1 CVDWP5X.CVX* WordPerfect for Macintosh 2.x CVDWP2X.CVX* WordStar 3.3, 3.31, 3.4 CVDWSXX.CVX* 4.0, 5.0, 5.5, 6.0 WordStar 2000 1.0, 2.0, 3.0 CVDW2KX.CVX XyWrite 3.55-3.56 CVDXY3X.CVX Additional README (*.DOC) files with information about other specific format conversions are also available from WordPerfect.
