HDAs or HotDocs Auto-Assemble files are documents associated with the .HDA file extension developed by HotDocs, a document automation software solution. HDAs are generally dialog templates created to be used as templates for assembly documents like agreements.
An HDA file contains the logic used to generate dynamic documents that are tailored to the individual user’s profile. HDAs are typically created using specialized authoring tools such as HotDocs Developer. The contents of an HDA file usually depends on the type of dialog template used but usually includes special variables, script components, dialog selections, and text-based data.
Similar File Extensions
Apart from HotDocs, there are other software solutions in the market that generate similar document files such as WordPerfect, WordStar, DOC, and PDF. The following list provides other similar file extensions for documents:
The HDA extension is primarily associated with HotDocs and present users with an automated document assembly process. Unlike other options, HDA document templates provide customization information that allows the document to be adapted for the user’s individual profile without needing a lot manual editing. It also enables users to create multiple versions of one template using multiple versions of the same content. Commonly, HDA documents are used in legal processes and corporate settings.
Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .HDA) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .HDA extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .HDA file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .HDA extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .HDA extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .HDA file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .HDA file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .HDA file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .HDA file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .HDA file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
