HWP and HWPX, and when each is needed

HWPX is Hancom's open XML-based format, and Korean public institutions are gradually standardising on it for submissions. The older binary HWP format is still what most people have, and versions of Hangul from 2010 and earlier cannot open HWPX at all.

Drop in a file and the direction is decided automatically from its extension. Body text, tables, images and basic formatting are preserved; charts and embedded OLE objects may be dropped.

No Hancom Office installation is needed and the file stays on your device.
