This is kind of exciting. I've been wanting to add graphics support to the
WordPerfect importer for a while (I actually have a bunch of template code),
but I was lacking code to load a WPG file, which is a rather obscure
vector/presentation format with a legacy dating back to the 1980s (rather
like the WordPerfect document format). Apparently though, Imagemagick
supports it.
I'll try playing with this later this week.
