Darrell Clegg Topic Author Offline New Member Posts: 5 Thank you received: 0	I accidently clicked not to save an inspection but had previously saved the generated report in adobe as a pdf. Is there any way to convert that back to the hzf file and reload it back into HIP? Darrell Check this box to be notified of replies to this topic. Note: BBcode and smileys are still usable.

I do not believe there is a converter for PDF to HZF. I think you are stuck. You should never go more than a main tab before hitting save. I highly recommend you go to Report Settings, Options, Auto Save and turn it on to 10 minutes. Or at the very least get in the habit of saving after each tab. This was drilled in to me when I was learning a specialized report system back in 1991.

You might be able to do a 1/2 screen with the PDF open on one side and HIP open on the other and then copy / paste. If you do it this way, find a regular mouse and don't try to use a touch pad. It will save you time and your sanity. Hopefully you have the PDF settings so you are able to copy.

It's not a format that can just be opened. If you used mobile you could reopen that inspection. As Stephen mentioned, definitely turn on autosave!
