Convert HPJ to HHP

Understanding HPJ and HHP file formats

The HPJ file format is primarily associated with Microsoft Help Workshop, a tool used to create help files for Windows applications. HPJ files contain project settings and references to other files needed to compile a help file. On the other hand, the HHP file format is used by Microsoft HTML Help Workshop, which is a more advanced tool for creating help documentation. HHP files serve as project files that include settings and references for compiling HTML-based help files.

How to convert HPJ to HHP

Converting an HPJ file to an HHP file involves transitioning from the older Microsoft Help Workshop to the newer HTML Help Workshop. This process typically requires manual intervention to ensure that all project settings and references are correctly transferred and updated.

Best software for HPJ to HHP conversion

The most effective software for converting HPJ files to HHP files is Microsoft HTML Help Workshop. This tool allows users to import HPJ files and convert them into HHP format. To perform the conversion, follow these steps:

• Open Microsoft HTML Help Workshop.
• Go to File → Open and select your HPJ file.
• Review and update project settings as needed.
• Save the project as an HHP file by selecting File → Save As and choosing the HHP format.

Ensure that all references and settings are correctly updated to avoid any issues during the compilation of the help file.
