I installed this app and tried it on three Word Perfect documents, one at a time to verfiy that the app worked. The app converted the first document, but the format was completely unlike the original. The second document I tried caused my entire system to grind to a halt. I couldn’t even Force Quit the app or restart my machine and had to unplug my machine to reboot! When I attempted to load a third document, I found that the app refused to forget trying to convert the previous document and I got snagged up in the same cycle of grinding my machine to a halt. I absolutely cannot recommend this app.
