What is an HWPX file?

HWPX is the modern, open standard document format for Hancom Office Hangul, introduced to adhere to the OWPML (Open Word Processor Markup Language) standard, also known as KS X 6101. Unlike the binary HWP format, HWPX utilizes a ZIP-compressed container structure holding XML files to define content, styles, and metadata, conceptually similar to Microsoft's DOCX. This shift enables better data interoperability, programmatic parsing, and machine readability for big data analytics and public record archiving.

How to open an HWPX file

HWPX files are primarily opened using Hancom Office 2010 SE+ or newer iterations. Users can also utilize the Hancom Office Viewer or the cloud-based Hancom Docs service. Because HWPX is a ZIP-based XML format, the raw contents can be inspected by renaming the extension to .zip and extracting it, though proper rendering requires the Hancom engine or the Naver Whale browser's document viewer.

What is an FB2 file?

FB2 (FictionBook) is an XML-based e-book format originally developed in Russia by Dmitry Gribov. Unlike ZIP-based containers like EPUB, an FB2 file is a single monolithic XML document where the text is marked up with semantic tags describing the structure (epigraphs, verses, citations) rather than the visual appearance. Binary data, such as cover images or illustrations, are embedded directly within the XML file using Base64 encoding. This structural focus facilitates easy conversion to other formats and precise rendering across different hardware devices.

How to open an FB2 file

Support for FB2 is prevalent in e-reading software but rare in native OS environments. Calibre is the primary tool for opening and converting FB2 files on Windows, macOS, and Linux. For dedicated reading, FBReader and CoolReader are cross-platform applications specifically optimized for parsing the FictionBook XML schema. Android users frequently use Moon+ Reader, while iOS users can utilize TotalReader or KyBook.
