Canadian company Corel Corporation offers the long extant WordPerfect Office Suite for word document, pdf and spreadsheet generation, touting epublishing features, rich presentation capabilities, and compatibility with more ubiquitous (e.g. Microsoft Office) word processors and office suites.Corel CorporationWordPerfect was Perfect in the Past2018-03-18T22:50:35.215ZWe are using WordPerfect to create and update a 170 page resource directory for our county. It is used mainly by two people who input the information into the program and format it. It is used mainly due to the fact that the resource directory was created with WordPrect in the late 1990's and every attempt at converting the format to MS Word has been unsuccessful.,WordPerfect has kept many of the same features for the past 20 years. It can even open documents made 20 years ago. Large documents are opened easily.
WordPerfect has a ton of formatting options. It is fairly easy to format items and lets you see the code that it is using to format, which does make changes easy.
WordPerfect comes built in with exporting to MS Word and PDF among many others. This is a nice addition since not many people have WordPerfect.,WordPerfect clearly has not updated the user interface in some years. It looks akin to Windows 98 icons and frames. The icons are not always intuitive.
The spreadsheet program seems like it is years behind. Almost everything is easier to do on Excel. It also looks very dated.
It is less automated. While this is nice for formatting, if you want the program to guess what you would like to do with formatting, that isn't going to happen.
The menus have tons of options; way too many really.,7,WordPerfect has made it possible to continue to update a 20 year old document and keep it viable.
It is foreseeable that eventually documents will be able to be converted to MSWord flawlessly and this would be a great bonus, but currently it is a downfall; one that keeps us using WordPerfect although.,Microsoft Office 2016,Google Drive, Adobe Acrobat DC, Microsoft Office 2016,2,2,Importing old documents.
