The wp6 file extension identifies a legacy document format used by WordPerfect 6. WordPerfect was later developed and distributed by Corel as part of the Corel WordPerfect Office suite.
A wp6 file stores a WordPerfect document, including its text and formatting. The format was used by older WordPerfect installations, including DOS-era software.
Open the wp6 file with Corel WordPerfect or Corel WordPerfect Office for Microsoft Windows. Use the program's Open command and select the file; a compatible older version may be required if a current version does not recognize it.
Open the wp6 file in a compatible version of Corel WordPerfect and use Save As or the export command to save it in a newer WordPerfect format or another supported document format.
Check the converted document for changes to layout, fonts, and other formatting, since older WordPerfect features may not transfer exactly.
