Word equation convertor - Unable to load
As you might guess from the subject, I am trying to convert a word perfect
(either version 6 or 7 I think - *.wpd) document into word using Word 2003. The text works perfectly, but none of the equations converted. When I convert, it asks me if I want to convert the formulas (the whole security BS and such). Once I start conversion I get an error that says "Unable to load equation convertor. Continue with document conversion?" I say yes and it only does the text. How can I get it to convert the formulas too. I tried looking online and downloading other programs and add-ons. Nothing seems to work. Does anyone know how I can fix this or where to go to download something that will? |

Word equation convertor - Unable to load
(Sorry for the formatting of the quoted part below. It's late and I
didn't want to fix it. G) Try this: (If you don't have MathType, download and install the evaluation version of it at the link in my signature.) Open the document in WordPerfect. Save it as an RTF (i.e., "rich text"). Open it in Word, and the equations should convert. I've had some success with this in the past, but haven't tried it with Word 2003. If you don't want to keep MathType after you're finished with the conversion, just uninstall it. -- Bob Mathews Director of Training Design Science, Inc. bobm at dessci.com http://www.dessci.com/free.asp?free=news FREE fully-functional 30-day evaluation of MathType MathType, WebEQ, MathPlayer, MathFlow, Equation Editor On 24-Oct-2008, ?B?Tmljaw==?= wrote: As you might guess from the subject, I am trying to convert a word perfect (either version 6 or 7 I think - *.wpd) document into word using Word 2003.
