What is a .wpt file?

A .wpt file is a 602Text Document. This is a document format, so it holds text and layout meant to be read.

How to open a .wpt file

  • Try LibreOffice (free, Windows/Mac/Linux) — it opens an enormous range of current and historic document formats.
  • Microsoft Word and Google Docs handle most mainstream document types.
  • If nothing opens it, open it in a text editor: many older document formats have readable text inside.

The registry records this extension against 602Text Document, so software from that family is the most likely match.

How to convert a .wpt file

  • Once it opens in LibreOffice or Word, Save As .docx or .pdf to get it into a format you can use anywhere.

For archivists, developers and the merely curious: these are the PRONOM registry entries for .wpt.
