WordPerfect changed the file format for WP 3.0 -- earlier versions of
EndNote couldn't read the files at all. That's what the upgrade does:
provide basic compatibility and the ability to format bibliographies in the
new version.
I'm sorry that we could not support footnotes: it's on our list for future
versions. We're also looking into better ways to interact with all word
processors, so we don't have to rewrite our formatting every time a new
version of each word processor comes out. Part of that interaction will
probably include scanning and formatting footnotes.
Yours,
Avi Rappoport
