switch internal WordPerfect char set to set 1. This option is default.
-charsetCZ
Switch internal WordPerfect char set to keybcs.
-cjHebrew
Allow Hebrew font translation.
-cp-xxx
switch output code table (LaTeX code page) to xxx. There are currently supported

866; 1251; KOI8R; UTF8
-cp-styles
This feature causes writing special styles for given codepages.

-extract-images
Extract images into separate files.
-fancyhdr
Use package fancyhdr.sty for headers and footers.

Use this directory for storing images. Prefer relative path. The relative path is
related to output .tex file. Default value='.'.
-fix-spaces
Try to fix more spaces by ~. This might by userfull when spacess fills some space
(e.g. in the table).
-force-xxx
WP2LaTeX has sophisticaded way how to autodetect file format of given document.
Some file formats like WP4.x could not be fully detected. Turning this parameter on
switch to the selected conversion module in the case when autodetection do not find
any appropriate file format. xxx stands for conversion module shortcut. These are
WP3.x, WP4.x, WP5.x, WP6.x and even several non WP like abiword, Accent, MTEFF, OLE
Stream, HTML, RTF, T602, UNICODE and WORD. Type Wp2LaTeX -v to obtain list of them.
(e.g. If you have WP4.x documents it is a good idea to use -force-WP4.x switch.)
-FORCE-xxx
This argument turns off any autodetection and enforces using of a given conversion
module. Use it only if you are sure about it and expect troubles, because your file
might be corrupted.
-fontenc-T1
Use package fontenc.sty [T1] with additional characters. Available for LaTeX 2.0e.

user may not want to convert them.
-input-PS
Use Postscript features in the LaTeX (mainly images).
-l Force log filename. The next argument is supposed as file name of the log file.
-L LANGUAGE
Switch message translations to language LANGUAGE. It means that WP2LaTeX can

Optimize optput for LaTex 2.09 (default).
-LaTeX3
Optimize optput for LaTex 2.e or LaTeX 3.0
-LineNo

-no-columns
Do not translate multicolumn text to more columns. The information about newspaper
columns will be lost.
-noclobber

/usr/local/bin/wp2latex The main conversion program wp2latex.sty The style for future
processing in the TeX system. Normally located in the directory:

endnotes into LaTeX documents. This style was downloaded from CTAN archive and is part of
many LaTeX installations. /usr/share/locale/cs/LC_MESSAGES/

AUTHORS
Somebody at Eindhoven Univ of Techn wrote a WordPerfect 5.0 to LaTeX conversion program.
Dirk Lellinger wrote formulas parser, but I had to rewrite it srom scratch. Now it works
much more better. This Program was rewritten by last author Jaroslav Fojtik, Email (try
one of these): fojtik@penguin.cz, JaFojtik@yandex.com.
There are some other ports of this code. But now I hope, that this release is best one.
BUGS
Tabbings are sometimes interpreted incorrectly. Captions of formulas is loosed. Many WP
features remain unconverted. There remain many other LaTeX warnings during TeX
processing.
