CUR to WPG Converter
Processing entirely on your device — large files may take a moment.
Convert WPG drawings to PNG to move legacy WordPerfect archives into modern systems. If your files are still in CUR format, this page is the shortcut: CUR is the Windows cursor format — structurally an ICO file with a hotspot, holding small bitmap cursor images.
This converter runs entirely in your browser using WebAssembly — your files never leave your device, nothing is uploaded, and there are no watermarks, sign-ups or queues. Drop in several files at once to convert them as a batch.
How CUR compares to WPG
| CUR | WPG | |
|---|---|---|
| Compression | BMP/PNG members (as ICO) | RLE (bitmaps) |
| Transparency | Supported | Supported |
| Animation | No (that is .ani) | Not supported |
| Metadata | Hotspot coordinates | Minimal |
| Best for | Windows cursors and UI assets | WordPerfect document graphics |

About the CUR format
CUR is the Windows cursor file: structurally identical to ICO (several small bitmap sizes bundled), with the addition of a hotspot coordinate that marks which pixel is the pointer's tip. Windows ships most of its system cursors as CUR files.
Designers customizing cursors or extracting UI assets meet CUR files that no modern image tool opens. Converting to PNG (the largest embedded size) makes them editable, viewable and reusable in web apps that implement custom cursors.
+Strengths
- ✓Windows cursor standard
- ✓Multiple sizes in one file
- ✓Hotspot data travels with the image
!Limitations
- −Tiny sizes only (usually ≤48px)
- −Meaningless outside cursor use
About the WPG format
WPG is the graphics format of WordPerfect Office, the word processor that dominated North American law offices and government agencies through the 1990s. WPG files embed both vector line art and bitmaps, which is why they still surface inside archived legal filings and municipal records.
Nothing modern reads WPG natively. Converting WPG to PNG rescues those drawings into a format that drops into any document, wiki or image library without a WordPerfect installation.
+Strengths
- ✓Holds both vector and bitmap art
- ✓Compact for its era
- ✓Widely present in legal archives
!Limitations
- −Legacy format, no modern support
- −Vector data may rasterize on convert
Why convert CUR to WPG?
Think of it as moving your file to the container that fits the job. Tiny sizes only (usually ≤48px) WPG works differently: Holds both vector and bitmap art If any of that sounds like your task, run the conversion — it takes seconds and nothing leaves your device.
Frequently asked questions
Is this CUR to WPG converter really free?
Yes — completely free, with no sign-up, no watermark and no daily conversion limits. The site is supported by advertising.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. The conversion runs entirely inside your browser using WebAssembly, so your files never leave your device — that is what makes it instant and private.
Does it work on Windows, Mac, iPhone and Android?
Yes. Anything with a modern browser works: Windows, macOS, Linux, Android and iOS. No software installation is required.
Will I lose quality converting CUR to WPG?
No — WPG is a lossless format, so every pixel of the converted image matches your original CUR file. You can also adjust the quality/size balance before converting when the target format supports compression.
Will transparent areas survive the conversion to WPG?
Transparency is kept whenever WPG actually supports an alpha channel. If the target format has none (like JPG), transparent areas are flattened onto a white background — that is a property of the format, not of this tool.
Can I convert several CUR files at once?
Yes — drop as many files as you like into the tool and they are converted in one batch. When more than one file comes out, everything is bundled into a ZIP for a single download.
