SUMMARY
Converting a document from Word format to WordPerfect format and back again may result in the loss of some formatting (for example, fonts, justification, styles, and mail merge). However you can usually avoid this problem by opening, paginating, and saving the converted document in WordPerfect before you convert it back to Word format.
Note that WordPerfect contains certain features that are not supported in Word 98 and vice-versa. If you want to find more information about a feature, or if you want to verify that a feature exists in Word 98, use Word Help.
