HWP at a glance
HWP
Convert to HWP when the recipient workflow is built around Hancom Hangul, particularly in Korean-language government, academic, or business environments.
It is appropriate for editable forms, official templates, and collaborative word-processing when local compatibility matters more than global default support.
For international exchange, DOCX or PDF may be easier, but HWP is the practical target inside Hangul-centric environments.
AI at a glance
AI
Convert to AI when the recipient needs an editable Illustrator-native asset for ongoing design work, brand management, packaging updates, or professional vector refinement.
It is the right target when preserving Illustrator editability matters more than broad viewer compatibility.
For general sharing, PDF or SVG are often simpler handoff formats.
