About formats

WPG (WordPerfect Graphics) is a mixed vector/raster image format developed by WordPerfect Corporation and introduced with WordPerfect 5.0 on May 5, 1988. The format was designed to provide a native graphics capability for WordPerfect documents, supporting both vector drawing elements (lines, curves, polygons, text with font specifications, and filled shapes) and embedded raster images in a single file. WPG exists in two major versions: WPG1, which supports 1-bit and indexed color rasters up to 256 colors with optional run-length encoding compression, and WPG2, introduced later, which added true-color (24-bit) support, OLE object embedding, and enhanced vector capabilities. The vector portion of WPG files stores resolution-independent drawing commands that can be scaled and printed at any output device's native resolution, while the raster portion handles photographic and scanned content. During WordPerfect's peak market dominance in the late 1980s and early 1990s, WPG was one of the most commonly encountered graphics formats in business and legal document workflows, used for logos, diagrams, letterheads, and clip art. One advantage is the hybrid vector/raster capability: WPG could combine scalable line art with photographic imagery in a single file at a time when most formats handled only one or the other, making it practical for the mixed-content graphics typical of business documents. Continued accessibility is another strength — WPG files remain readable by LibreOffice, Corel's current software suite (which inherited WordPerfect), ImageMagick, XnView, and Inkscape, ensuring decades-old documents remain viewable.

MOBI is an ebook format originally developed by Mobipocket SA, a French company founded in 2000 that was later acquired by Amazon in 2005. The format builds on the PalmDOC/PDB container structure, adding support for HTML-based content markup, embedded images, a DRM layer, and a JavaScript subset for limited interactivity. MOBI files use a record-based database architecture inherited from Palm OS, with a header structure containing metadata like title, author, publisher, and language followed by compressed HTML content records. The format became the foundation of Amazon's early Kindle ecosystem — the original AZW format used on first-generation Kindles was essentially MOBI with Amazon's own DRM wrapper. MOBI supports reflowable text with basic formatting including bold, italic, headings, lists, and tables, as well as internal hyperlinks and a built-in table of contents. One advantage is broad device compatibility: MOBI files are recognized by Kindle devices and apps spanning over a decade of hardware, as well as numerous third-party readers on desktop and mobile platforms. The format's lightweight structure is another strength — even long novels produce compact files that load quickly on modest hardware. While Amazon has since moved to the more capable AZW3/KF8 format for new publishing, MOBI remains widely circulated in existing ebook libraries and continues to be produced by conversion tools like Calibre for maximum Kindle compatibility.
