    Default Importing tables from WordPerfect to Indesign

    I am converting tables that have been created in WordPerfect into an Indesign document so I can send a proper file to a printer. Is there an easy way to do this because when I copy and paste the contents of the table from WordPerfect, it says the file is corrupt. I have had to copy and paste each line one at a time. There must be an easier way. Anyone???

    Thanks.

    1. Save as .rtf and use the place command; then re-create the tables in
    Indesign or
    2. Print a PDF and place the table. If you cannot print to PDF, you may be
    able to print to file, creating a .prn file, which you can then run through
    Distiller to create a PDF.

    If you have Acrobat Distiller, it is most likely that you also can print to
    the virtual Adobe PDF printer... ;-)
