Bob thanks, I will try to do that with each.Ed

Again thanks Bob but #1 may do it and #2 was in french and my high school french from 1952 is too old to be any good. Again thanks

The noted software on google.com for the English and other versions. For some reason I didn't notice it in French.

Thank you Ed, I will try your suggestions.
I do have MS Word 2003 and trying to open a wpg picture results in very garbled text with many spaces within and it thinks its Japanese, or so the assoc box says.
Just trying to picture a thumbnail with ms viewer and fax viewer I get an icon picturing an 8x11 sheet,top right corner turned over slightly with a rectangle on the "paper" with 6 smaller rectangle icons within(colored I think). Again thanks, Ed V

There are some interesting, and useful, image editing capabilities in XnView, as well.

Not enough to be your only editor, because there is plenty that it can't do. But most times, the casual user does not need all the power of the professional packages.
However, XnView is free.

Thank you chuckT. I did download XnView and it does not handle .wpg unless the writter has an add-on to it. Thanx, Ed V

Do you want to write WPG files? That isn't what you said before. You said you had WPG files and you wanted to convert to something else.

Supposely XnView can read WPG files and write to one of 40 other formats, and WPG is not one of the ones it can NOT write.

However, your response had me wondering...
So I started up my XnView (I have the latest version v1.80.3) and browsed to my WordPerfect files (I have v12) and dug into the clipart there. That is all WPG format. I tried to open about a half-dozen WPG files there... and they would not open.

I then checked to see that XnView did have the proper add-ins, if needed, to open WPG files, and none were needed, and besides XnView says to could open them anyway. (You generally do not need add-ins to read proprietary formats, only if you want to write them.)

I kept getting the "Format of the file <whatever.wpg> could not be determined" error. So I don't know what's wrong. I am disappointed in the performance of XnView, sorry. I may send a message off to the XnView developer - or, at least, look on the XnView website to see if other people have reported a similar issue.

Later.
