Consider skipping this upgrade [Posted on 2003-10-22]
I upgraded from WP 8 and, after installing and using WP 11, I went back to WP 8. Biggest problem is that the upgrade is not seamless. For example, WP 11 does not fully support Corel Addressbook--they expect you to use Microsoft Outlook for your addressbook. If you want to continue to use Corel Addressbook, you get a scaled-back version of it which isn't as useful as the Version 8 Addressbook. Also, I had problems with some document conversion issues. On the whole, if I had to do this again, I would not buy this product.

Not as good as expected [Posted on 2004-01-02]
I have been a long-time fan of Word Perfect - since Version 4.0 days. But so far I have been disappointed with 11.0. I do not see much change from 11.0, the upload time is slow and it continuously freezes my computer (using Windows Me). In addition, I understood the upgrade was to include Paradox (database) but apparently it does not.

As along time user.... [Posted on 2004-02-24]
I have been a user since Version 1, with a very low registration number. I upgraded from Ver 6 to 8, then to 9, and it crashed and wrecked my system. I rebuilt my system, and reinstalled Ver 8. I was a bit hesitant to go to 11, but did. No problems with the installation. However, I kept the previous versions of Presentations and am glad I did. I find importing jpg files into Presentations 11 in draw mode distorts the picture. But there are nice features of Presentations 11 that are superior to that in Ver 8. I create some of the material in Presentations Ver 11, and save and then open into Version 8 to finish it off for imported graphics. I also like the clip art better in Ver 8 than that for Ver 11. Overall, I guess I am disappointed that Ver 11 is not a leap ahead of Ver 8. Perhaps the only compelling reason to upgrade is if you are at a previous version that will soon require the full price rather than the upgrade price for a future upgrade. I cannot stand WORD and greatly prefer Word Perfect but Corel needs to do more to justify an upgrade than simply issue a new version.

The WP11 Previewer Crashes The Program [Posted on 2004-04-15]
WP 11's previewer crashes the program every time you try to preview a document created with WP10 or earlier, or if you try to preview an MS Word document.

WP 12 is excellent. WP 10 is stable also. WP 11 should never have been shipped with its defective previewer. I was forced to reinstall WP 10 for day-to-day use. I used WP 11 strictly to create PDFs.

WP 12 has excellent stability and better functionality than WP11.

WP 11 is a defective program. I should be given a refund for the money I spent to buy WP11.

Skip 11 and go right to 12. The WP12 demo is available now, and WP 12 ships later in the month.

(I've been using WP since 5.0 in 1989)

Where the heck is the Asian Language support? [Posted on 2005-01-08]
This program (my computer came with WordPerfect 11) makes even some of the easiest functions hard to use. It looks like MSWord, but a lot things are hard to find and are lacking. My biggest complaint is that you can't type Chinese characters on it. Without this, I can't do my work. Features such as "crop" "contrast" and "word count" and "header/footer" which would have been so easy on MS Word to FIND and CHANGE to my liking are now hidden from me (navigating is a huge pain!)or else isn't even available. I don't have time to waste trying to find ways to just type accents using the keyboard (which you can do on MS Word, wasn't able to find a way to do that on WPerfect, even though I used the help index)without having to go to the "insert symbols" button on the menu and choosing from there. Overall, although changing and playing around with margins and indentations are easier in WordPerfect than MS Word, it's still a huge pain to navigate and use. I hate WordPerfect with a passion. WHY did my computer have to come with this???
