Good to know
- The HWP file is opened by LibreOffice. Fonts it does not have are replaced, so line and page breaks can differ a little from the program that made the file.
- HWP is read by LibreOffice's import filter for it; very complex formatting can be simplified.
- The result is one HTML file with its pictures built into it.
Frequently asked questions
Is converting HWP to HTML free?
Yes. Everyone gets 25 free credits a day, with no account needed. Conversions on our server use one credit per started minute of work, so most cost a single credit. Credits reset at midnight UTC.
Are my HWP files uploaded anywhere?
This conversion runs on our server, because reading an HWP file needs LibreOffice, which does not run in a browser. Your file is sent over an encrypted connection, and both it and the result are deleted 72 hours after the conversion. The server has no internet access while it works on your file.
How large can the HWP file be?
Up to 1 GB per file. This conversion runs on our server, which accepts files up to that size.
Will the HTML look the same as the HWP?
The text and structure are kept: headings, lists, tables, bold and italic. Exact page layout, fonts and spacing may differ, because HTML is flowing text, not fixed pages.
Can I convert several HWP files at once?
Yes. Add as many files as you like; they are converted one after another, and each one gets its own Download button.
