You can't directly.  My workaround is to copy the text to a DOS text
file, such as the WordPerfect text editor, open that file in a Linux
text editor, such as Kedit, and then insert that file in the desired
Linux application.

As you can see the workaround is quite cumbersome.  I have many
important texts written when I was still using WordPerfect 5.1, parts of
which I want to incorporate in documents created in OpenOffice, which I
now use as my primary word processor.  The workaround described is how I
manage the transfer.
