CHM to PDF Converter that Works on Mac Sonoma?

Hello,


I have a collection of CHM files that I need to convert to PDF format for easier access and sharing on my Mac. However, I'm not sure how to do this efficiently, as CHM files are not readily viewable or convertible to PDF on macOS.


Has anyone successfully converted CHM files to PDF on a Mac? If so, could you please share your recommended methods or CHM to PDF converter software for this task?


I'm open to both free and paid options and would appreciate any step-by-step instructions or tips you can provide.


Thank you in advance for your help!

Converting CHM files to PDF on a Mac requires a specific software tool, as macOS does not natively chm format in Preview. If you're comfortable with macOS's Automator app, you could potentially create a workflow to convert CHM to HTML and then to PDF, though this method might require additional scripting and is more complex.


In addition, there are several third-party CHM to PDF converter apps and online services you can try out. Do check the update date when trying the app as out of date app will not work on the latest macOS for sure!


P.S. When downloading and installing third-party software, especially from sources other than the Mac App Store, ensure you are using reputable sources to avoid malware risks.
