.WPD File Extension

A WPD file is a text document created by Corel WordPerfect, a word processor for Windows included with the WordPerfect Office suite. It may contain formatted text, tables, charts, drawn objects, and images.

You can open WPD files with Corel WordPerfect in Windows. The application is included with the Corel WordPerfect Office suite, along with the Quattro Pro and Presentations programs.

You can also use other programs, such as Microsoft Word or LibreOffice Writer, to open WPD files. However, these applications may not fully support the formatting in the document.

A WPD file is a text document created with 602Text, an older word processing program for Windows included with Software602 602PC SUITE. It contains formatted text and page layout information. WPD files are saved in a format designed to be compatible with Microsoft Word.

602PC SUITE was a Czech productivity suite that included a word processor, spreadsheet application, photo editor, and photo organizer. 602Text was 602PC Suite's word processor. The program saved users' documents as WPD files.

In 2004, Software602 discontinued 602PC SUITE and replaced it with 602Office. However, 602Office is now also discontinued. Previous 602PC SUITE and 602Office users are encouraged to switch to Kingsoft Office, which includes a similar program called Kingsoft Writer.

If you still have access to 602Text (Windows), you can open your WPD file in that program. Otherwise, you may be able to open your WLS file in Microsoft Word (Windows, Mac) or another word processor.

Text document format used by version 2 of ACT! contact management software.
