Compiled HTML Help (CHM) is Microsoft’s format for software documentation and online help. A CHM packs a set of HTML pages, images, and scripts into one compressed file, along with a table of contents, an index, and a full-text search database. It was the standard help system for Windows applications for many years, and it is still used for reference manuals and technical e-books because everything ships as a single, searchable file.

 

How to open a CHM file?

Windows includes a built-in viewer, so double-clicking a CHM usually opens it straight away. If the pages appear blank, right-click the file, choose Properties, and click Unblock — Windows restricts help files downloaded from the internet.

 

On macOS and Linux, use xCHM or KchmViewer. Calibre also opens CHM files and converts them to EPUB or PDF, which is a good way to read one on a tablet or e-reader.

Electronic Publication (EPUB) is the open standard for e-books and the format used by almost every retailer except Amazon. An EPUB is really a ZIP package of HTML, CSS, images, and fonts, which means the text reflows to fit whatever screen it is read on. Readers can change the font, size, and margins freely, and the same file works on phones, tablets, e-readers, and computers.

 

How to open an EPUB file?

On Apple devices, EPUB opens directly in Apple Books. On Windows and Android, Calibre is the standard choice and doubles as a library manager and converter.

 

Other good readers are Adobe Digital Editions, which handles DRM-protected library loans, plus Thorium Reader, Google Play Books, and Kobo. Amazon Kindle devices now accept EPUB through Send to Kindle, but for older Kindles convert the file first with our EPUB to MOBI tool.
