Convert HQX to BNHQ

What is HQX file?

The HQX file extension is most commonly associated with the BinHex 4.0 encoding format. It is primarily used to encode binary data for transmission over networks, such as the Internet, and for storage of data in a text-only format. This type of encoding was developed by Yves Lempereur in 1991, who named it after the "hexadecimal" character set that is used for representing data in binary form. [ ⏩ ] HQX file extension

How to convert the file from HQX to BNHQ?

To successfully convert the HQX file to BNHQ, you should install one of the applications from the list. After installing the software, open the program and select the file you want to convert (file-name.HQX). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case BNHQ (usually converters allow you to convert to several different formats, so check out their features - maybe one of the available formats will suit you more than BNHQ).

What is a file conversion?

A data conversion is normally an automated process to some extent. The effect of the operation of one program is automatically the input product of another application. If that does not happen we need to help the process a little bit and convert the file on our own, e.g. HQX to BNHQ. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.

Program for converting HQX files to BNHQ files is a kind of a "binary code translator" compensating for the differences in the code or translating it in such a way so that another application could use it. For us, as users, the visible change will be only another file extension. (After converting the file, it will be the extension BNHQ, while before this step we had the HQX file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new BNHQ file, or not.
