The software is specifically designed to convert HTML files into EXE files. The advantage of the software is that it uses intelligent wizards to guide the user through the entire production process step by step. Therefore, we don't have to worry about what we forget when we make it. According to the guidance provided by the software, we can easily create beautiful e-books. In addition, the software's operating interface is concise, clear, and easy to use. However, the disadvantage is that the software does not support Java, Javascript, DHTML, Flash, etc. It is not possible to directly replace the icon of the output file, and it must be created with the help of related tools. The software has so far no Linux and Mac versions.

This software is a software produced by Web Compiler of Germany for compiling multiple HTML pages (including image files) into executable files. It is currently an excellent software in its class. Its biggest feature is that the software itself is equivalent to a small web browser and will not cause any damage to the original HTML file. The software supports CSS, Javascript and other common web technologies. But Java and Flash are not supported, and the software's answer to whether it supports Plugin and ActivX is "maybe", because it depends on the related issues such as the security of Plugin and ActivX. In addition, WebCompiler2000 does not support Active Server Pages. The software requires the maker's computer to have IE 4.0 or above installed on it, and the software does not have a Unix, Mac, or Natscape browser-based version. However, because the software is 32 Bit, the operating system based on Microsoft Windows platform can run.

Note: During the production process, please do not use the Chinese name as the file or folder name that needs to be compiled. Otherwise, the software will pop up a window indicating that the page cannot be found. In addition, you can make your own logos and icons as a sign of your work. However, you must have a registered version of Webcompiler 2000.

WebCompiler98 is the predecessor of WebCompiler2000 and has almost all functions of WebCompiler2000. Since the Chinese version was very successful, detailed localization was done in almost all places, so many friends are now using the software. However, since this Chinese version was only based on the decryption of Web Compiler98, the software currently has some drawbacks: that is, the logo and icon of the work cannot be changed.

The biggest feature of the software is its deterrence operation. That is, when we open a directory, the software will display all the files in the directory in the file list. We can select one or more files from the list through the deduction. Method Add files to the list of files to be compiled. We can control the sorting and running order of files in the list of files to be compiled. In addition, we can arbitrarily and preferably specify the start and end of the entire file run during the production process. The software supports HTML basic elements and CSS, but does not support Javascript, Java, and other technologies. In addition, the software can directly jump to the specified page during the compilation and output of the EXE file, which is a very convenient function. However, the software does not impose any copyright restrictions on the compiled files, so this is not conducive to the rights and interests of the authors and publishers.

The software is designed in the style of a resource manager. In the upper left corner, select the path where you want to compile the file. All the files in the selected folder will appear in the file list at the bottom left. Then select all or part of the files from these files (multiple choices are possible), then use the mouse to drag these files to the list of files to be compiled on the right. Before the final compilation of the output, readers are encouraged to add the beginning and end of the entire file run. Click the Book Begin and Book End under the software menu Insert to indicate the start and end of the run. Of course, we need to sort the files to be compiled on the right, otherwise it is very likely that the final run sequence is incorrect. In addition, if you run the compiled EXE file for the first time, you will find that the current page will be displayed in split-screen mode, and select the Options>Single Page option in the menu.

HyperMaker HTML 2000 is the software that supports the most file formats and effects in its class, and its performance is excellent. The software supports most of the HTML 3.0 and later identifiers; Flash, Acrobat, AVI and MPEG; can be embedded in Word, PowerPoint, Zip format files; support the use of dynamic logos; use HyperMaker Viewer browsing support click audio. What is worth mentioning is that the software has its own reader. Although we do not need a special reader to read after the output file, the software's own reader facilitates us to check whether the page's browsing effect is consistent during the production process. Claim. In addition, the reader can play MIDI, WAV, MP3, AVI and MPG format audio and video files, can browse PDF and Flash files, you can browse Word, Excel and other documents, these features are unmatched by similar products. So you can see from the above that the software does have a very professional level in its class.

In addition, the software does not support CSS, and the size of the output file is larger than others under the same conditions.

This software is a product of the same company as HyperMaker HTML 2000. From the operation interface, the software is more like a simplified version of HyperMaker HTML 2000. The software still maintains the HyperMaker operating style and supports basic HTML elements, CSS, Flash, Javascript, Java, AVI, various audio files, and more. Therefore, the software is also one of the supported file formats in the same category. Compared to HyperMaker, the software removes the five options tabs Interface, Options, External, Setup, and Viewer, and combines the Interface and Options tabs into an option tab called Main Options. In addition, unlike HyperMaker, the software needs to create a Publication file before it can generate an EXE file. The software can directly compile and export all the files into an EXE file. It is also recommended that readers register the software, otherwise the compiled EXE file can only survive for 7 days, and some functions of the software cannot be used.
