Thanks for the suggestion, this shouldn't be a huge problem to implement (however as you might have noticed I'm a bit overwhelmed with other projects so it might take a while before I can start working on this)

@dpieski Do you have example WPD files you could send me?

Added basic support for WordPerfect in 2.11.2 but I would need more sample files to test & implement the metadata parsing.

Downloads.log

I just downloaded some samples online. I put them in a *.rar file. I can't upload a rar file, however. So, I changed the extension to *.log.

I was able to open most of these files in MS Word.
