Notation Or Note Format | Notation Software | Data Files |
The NOT file extension is used by the WordPerfect Office suite of programs. This file extension serves as a basic note taking format which users can use to store basic text or notes. The NOT format is limited in functionality as it only supports basic text formatting such as bold, italic, underline and bullets. Images are not supported in this file format.
The NOT format can be opened with various version of WordPerfect as well as Microsoft Word. It can also be opened with applications such as Corel WordPerfect Office, LibreOffice Writer, SoftMaker Office, AbiWord and Textmaker. It is worth mentioning that the old versions of WordPerfect saved their notes in the WP, WPN, WP18, WP19 ext>, and WP5 file formats.

The similar types of files are TXT, RTF, and DOCX. Such types are compatible with both non-Microsoft and Microsoft programs on any operating system.
Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .NOT) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .NOT extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .NOT file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .NOT extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .NOT extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .NOT file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .NOT file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .NOT file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .NOT file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .NOT file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
