Since then, the now defunct Dataviz Maclinkplus has been good tool to transition data from Wordperfect to current word processors. http://www.neooffice.org/ currently can read many Wordperfect formats, and some other Mac compatible word processors may as well*:
Corel WordPerfect Office X8 is the latest version of the one office suite that provides a real alternative to Microsoft Office, rather than just being a lower-powered imitation.
If you have an Intel CPU Mac, you also have very good virtualization options for running Windows on a Mac, or using WINE to put Wordperfect on the Mac*:
PowerPC emulation options are more limited, and slower.

Great!
This app did me a great favor and let me finish a pile of WPD files processing. I never expect that it can convert my documents to .text format before, but it really can do, it does help me out from heavy-duty work.

The whole process of using is very smooth. The page design of this app is very reasonable and people can easily learn how to use it. What's more, it is commendable that this app made me feel that it is worth to buy it!
