I just transferred a document from WordPerfect to Microsoft Word and I noticed that the words get divided or separated when you reach the end of the right marging going to the next line.

Can someone help with this?

If you have a version that offers it, try using Open and Repair; otherwise,
treat the document as corrupt (see
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/CorruptDoc.htm). It is never surprising
to have unexpected results when converting from WordPerfect. See
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/General/Wo...Converters.htm.
