EZPZ FileConvert an HWP document to the open HWPX format without Hancom Office. Drop the file, press convert, and you get a .hwpx that keeps the tables, pictures, shapes and headers. Then the engine reads that file back to confirm the page count still matches.

Files are opened inside this browser only. Nothing is sent anywhere.
HWP 5.0 (the Korean word processor from 2002 onward) is supported.
The document engine is downloaded once, then reused.
You get the page count, plus a note if the check found a mismatch or if anything could not be carried over.
HWP and HWPX are two containers for the same document. One is a Hancom binary, the other is zipped XML, but the document model inside is the same. Nothing has to be redrawn the way it does for PDF; only the mapping between formats has to hold.
| Element | Carried over |
|---|---|
| Text and paragraph formatting | As it was |
| Tables, pictures, shapes | As they were |
| Headers, footers, page numbers | As they were |
| Document password | If the original had one, the result gets the same one |
The Korean government is moving to the open HWPX format. Central ministries moved years ago and local government follows in 2026, so documents submitted to public bodies increasingly need to be HWPX.
HWPX is compressed XML, which means programs other than Hancom can read it. For anything you need to keep for a long time, an open format is the safer place to leave it.
When the conversion finishes, the engine reads the HWPX it has just written and compares the page count with the original. When something goes wrong in a format conversion, the page count is usually where it shows first. If the engine reports elements it could not carry over, that count appears with the result too.
HWP 5.0 (2002 and later) and HWPX can be read. Older formats such as HWP 3.0 cannot.
We have not verified the result inside Hancom Office ourselves. For a submission or anything else that matters, open the file in Hangul once before deleting the original.
No. Both the HWP parser and the HWPX writer run inside your browser, so confidential official documents are fine to drop in.
It cannot be read. Remove the password in the Korean word processor and try again.
Only HWP 5.0 (2002 onward). The older HWP 3.0 cannot be read.
It is written as standard OWPML, and the engine reads the finished file back to confirm the page count. We have not verified how Hancom Office itself handles it, so for important documents open the result before deleting the original.
Yes. HWP and HWPX hold the same document model in different containers, so tables, pictures, shapes and headers move across by mapping alone. Anything the engine cannot carry over is counted and shown.
You convert a Korean HWP to Word and the tables shift, the fonts change and the line breaks move. What breaks element by element when HWP becomes DOCX, which route keeps the most, and when you should not convert to Word at all.
Someone in Korea sends you a file ending in .hwpx and nothing on your computer will open it. This page explains what HWPX is, how it differs from the older .hwp, why you are seeing more of it, and what to do when you just need to read it or send it back.
A Korean school office, employer or online application form wants an .hwp file, and what you have is an .hwpx. This page covers how to turn it into a real HWP with Hangul, without Hangul, and on a work PC where you cannot install anything, and what can still look different when the other side uses an old Hangul.
This product was developed with reference to the HWP document file (.hwp) specification published by Hancom.
