What problem does it solve?
HWP documents often render incorrectly or behave oddly, and when that happens you need low-level visibility into layout structure and version differences to pinpoint where the break occurs.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Layout debugging via upstream rhwp CLI: dump page layout internals, render pages to SVG/PDF for visual inspection, and extract document thumbnails for quick review.
- IR-level diagnostics and comparisons: generate IR dumps, inspect page/record structure, and run IR diffs between two HWP/HWPX files to isolate structural changes down to the layout components.
- Unlock read-only distribution formats: convert locked read-only HWP files into an editable version for downstream editing workflows.
Quick Start
Run the command rhwp dump-pages your-document.hwp to inspect page-level pagination and layout structure, then switch to export-svg or ir-diff if you need visual rendering or structural comparison.
