Word Perfect Question

hello Everyone,

I was able to convert documents from Word Perfect 5 to PDF using the feature: " Publish to PDF" now it stopped working.

I tried the Feature "save as" and I was looking for PDF but its not there.

anybody has any idea what is going on please ?

Last time i was able to convert my documents to PDF was 6 months ago.


Thank you

Word perfect 5
I  think you mean WordPerfect X5.

WordPerfect 5 is old, that's a DOS product.

Anyway, try removing the file here -- "C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\corel\WordPerfect Office X5\User Config\corelpdf.ini"

You may have to unhide the folder concerned.

See http://officecommunity.com/wordperfect/f/31/t/2149 for more information.
Let me double check. This is a professor who uses it, he still uses floppys, when I checked is of I saw word perfect 5 not x5.

Your instructions are still working for 5?
No.

I can't see how he is using WordPerfect 5 to publish to PDF.

WordPerfect 5 pre-dates PDF by at least three years.
