libwpd - a library for importing WordPerfect (tm) documents

Introduction

libwpd is a C++ library designed to help process WordPerfect documents. It is most commonly used to import WordPerfect documents into other word processors (see below), but may be useful in other cases as well.

libwpd exposes a simple callback-based API (similar to SAX), allowing it to be easily plugged into any C or C++ application.

Programs that use libwpd

libwpd is used by LibreOffice, AbiWord, LibreOffice, OpenOffice.org and KOffice.

In addition, some stand-alone utilities are also available to demonstrate the use of libwpd. wpd2html, wpd2text (included with the main libwpd distribution), and wpd2odt (available in a seperate package) convert WordPerfect Documents to html, text, and OpenDocument respectively.

Note that libwpd is not manufactured, approved, or supported by Corel Corporation or Corel Corporation Limited.
