I remember WordPerfect well. I used it a lot, too.

I used WordPerfect at a few employers. I still have a working installation - I needed it to solve problems for some clients - but it was never my choice. Some clients loved its mailmerge setup.

The label on the package is interesting. "Install on 2 PC's per household". No stated limit on number of households...

That would probably be determined during registration/installation of the software.

I didn't follow WordPerfect into the Windows era, but I seem to remember they sort of fumbled that, and MS Word had an easier time being the Windows word processer of choice than it might have otherwise (although I think early versions of MS Word for Windows sucked pretty bad?) I wound up in a Mac work environment in the 90s, but we had a single PC to run a few things including a big Turbo Pascal program I did, and I kept a DOS machine at home for that and WP. Never really did much with Windows other than that.

I use Libreoffice mostly for making PDF files. It's a good tool for making ebooks

With Windows 10 and 11, one of your printers is "Microsoft Print to PDF". And that's for anything you may want to print ...
