CONVERT.EXE - Multimate General Information
DocumentID: 610431

The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Solutions: WPCorp wrote the Multimate conversion process in the Convert program for Multimate Advantage II (version 3.7). However, Multimate Advantage (3.6), Multimate 3.5 and 3.3 files should all convert fairly well using the Multimate Advantage II conversion.

Multimate 4.0 files must be internally converted to the Advantage II format and then processed through WP's Convert program.

These are the features that will be converted when the Multimate Advantage option is chosen. These features convert both ways except for Auto Outline, which converts from WordPerfect to Multimate only.


Auto Outline                  Right Justification On/Off
Bold On/Off                  Set Horizontal Margins
Center                        Set Lines Per Inch
Columns                        Set Page Size
Comments                        Set Pitch
Date and Time                  Set Tabs
Decimal Align                  Set Underline Style
Extended Characters            Set Vertical Margins
Footer                        Shadow Print
Hard Hyphen                  Soft Hyphen
Hard Page                        Soft Page
Hard Return                  Soft Return
Hard Space                  Spacing Reset
Header                        Strikeout On/Off
Indent                        Superscript/Subscript
Line Draw                        Tab
Overstrike                  Underline On/Off
Page Number Inserted


All versions of Multimate (including Advantage) will convert fine using the Multimate option in the Convert program. Conversion is simple, with the possible exception of the Line Draw feature in Multimate documents, because Multimate has multiple codes for line draw characters.

Note: This information only applies to CONVERT.EXE. ConvertPerfect does support converting to/from Multimate 4.0.
