WPG to 7Z Converter
Processing entirely on your device — large files may take a moment.
7Z is ideal for big archives you store or share with power users; convert to ZIP when the recipient just needs to double-click. If your files are still in WPG format, this page is the shortcut: WPG is the embedded-graphics format of WordPerfect Office — vector and bitmap drawings from 1990s documents, still found in legal and government archives.
iLoveConverter processes everything locally on your computer, which makes it private and fast: no upload wait, no server storage, no limits. Add as many files as you like — batch conversion is built in.

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
About the 7Z format
7Z is the native format of Igor Pavlov's 7-Zip (1999), built around LZMA/LZMA2 compression — for years the ratio king against ZIP and RAR — with AES-256 encryption, solid archiving (similar files compress as one stream) and open, unpatented specifications. A 7Z of the same photos or code is routinely 20–40% smaller than its ZIP.
The trade-off is platform defaults: Windows Explorer and macOS Archive Utility do not open 7Z without third-party tools (7-Zip, PeaZip, Keka). It is the format for maximizing compression on your own terms, and for encrypted archives done properly (header encryption included).
+Strengths
- ✓Top-tier compression ratio (LZMA2)
- ✓Real AES-256 encryption, optional header encryption
- ✓Open format, free tooling everywhere
!Limitations
- −No native OS support — recipients need tools
- −Solid mode makes single-file extraction costly
Why convert WPG to 7Z?
Converting makes sense where the strengths of 7Z meet what WPG cannot give you. Top-tier compression ratio (LZMA2) Meanwhile Legacy format, no modern support One pass through the converter above puts your file on the right side of that trade-off.
Frequently asked questions
Is this WPG to 7Z 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 WPG to 7Z?
No — 7Z is a lossless format, so every pixel of the converted image matches your original WPG file. You can also adjust the quality/size balance before converting when the target format supports compression.
Can I convert several WPG 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.
Will transparent areas survive the conversion to 7Z?
Transparency is kept whenever 7Z 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.
