The WordPerfect text and graphics file (WPP) is a proprietary document format originally developed by the WordPerfect Corporation and later maintained by Corel. This legacy format primarily stores word processing data, including formatted text, vector graphics, and layout information created within older versions of the WordPerfect Office suite. As an obsolete standard, it has largely been superseded by modern alternatives, though contemporary productivity software may still support WPP files for archival recovery and historical data migration.

const signature = Buffer.from([0xFF, 0xD8]);
return buffer.subarray(0, 2).equals(signature);
}
Go
func IsWPP(data []byte) bool {
signature := []byte{0xFF, 0xD8}
if len(data) < 2 {
return false
}
return bytes.Equal(data[:2], signature)
