If you are negotiating a document, using WordPerfect can be a problem since so few people still use it and while it is easy to save a .wpd document as a .doc, the reverse creates all sorts of formatting mayhem. However, WordPerfect has great page numbering options and easy macro/template creation.

Pros
No answers on this topic
  • WordPerfect Office makes merging documents very simple and I can do more elaborate merges easily.
  • WordPerfect Office's reveal codes is a major plus! I have used it so many times to find extra coding in a document that is creating problems.

OpenOffice is great because it is free. For people on a budget you can't beat it. No question that WordPerfect is the superior and more powerful product, but not an option for everyone. Oddly, OpenOffice seems more capable at working with Microsoft Office format than WordPerfect.
