I am a huge fan of the ebook. I love ebooks. Sure all the books on the bookshelf make you look all smart and cool and stuff, but I like having all the ebooks to search, right at my fingertips. The only problem I have is some books come with e versions in the .chm format, and the publishers name some of them like 41324987Book_Version_2.3.chm. When I pull the .chm to my laptop and dump it into the ebook folder, 41324987Book_Version_2.3.chm means nothing to me when there's 200 documents and a third of them are named like this. I have had a problem when I re-name the files, sometimes they don't work. I don't know why this is, but it has happened to me a lot more than once. Enter
CHM2PDF. This is a great tool by
colorpilot. You open the thing up and point it to a .chm and in a minute or two, BAM!, you get a PDF with all the hyperlinking and indexing from the original CHM. This tool has become one of my new best friends. Not only does it do the CHMs, but if you get the DOC2PDF, it can generate a PDF from almost any file; txt, rtf, html, htm, shtml, chm, doc, mcw, xls, xlw, wri, wps, wpt, wpd to PDF, retaining all the goodies from your original document like links, images and everything. This is also helpful if you have a lot of existing documentation in a ton of different formats and you want to glean it all up, or present it on the web. A real time saver in that department. Great tool guys, thanks a lot. Check it out as well as some of the other goodies they make, great stuff.
