My wife and I have been using Word Perfect products for over 30 years. The word processing product has always been better than MS Word. The features and tools are easier to use and to find. The printing on various paper media and sizes is much better and sometimes easier. From brochures, to text documents, to importing images or pictures, scaling, Reveal Codes, printing, sizing various items and functions; these are better and easier to do in Word Perfect. If we are not able to easily use some document in Word Perfect, then we go to LibreOffice or OpenOffice. the open source freeware ones are easier to use, for us, than the MS products. Our preference. You can open and save various formats in Word Perfect, even the MS formats. the major issue is if you need to share a document with most anyone else, you need to save in MS Word format. MS Word will not open up a Word Perfect format document. Word Perfect is very flexible and fairly easy to use. this one was worth the money we spent. Our prior version was WP X4 which we used for 10 years.
