I transfer WordPerfect files between an IBM 4.2 format and WordPerfect GS format on at least a weekly basis, via a Sun unix system in between even. The main trick is making sure that you save them as file type $A0 when you transfer them with kermit; I think you also have to tel the Sun to treat them as binary but I don't remember if it works without doing so. 4.2 has a few features not yet implemented in WP IIGS; some get simply ignored by WP IIGS if they happen to be there, others cause it to hang. WordPerfect says at least they shouldn't cause it to hang and are working on the problem.
