Since the HP Prime firmware got no major update in the last 21 months (just a single very minor update 14 months ago), it should still work.

You just need to convert your document online :
https://tiplanet.org/forum/editgx.php?mode=46

You'll get a .zip file including one or several HP Prime applications (*.hpappdir.zip files) and you just need to transfer those.

The default behaviour is to split the document by groups of 20 pages (1 app for each 20 pages range), but this can be changed.
The split is just for technical reasons (too big apps won't work) and is totally transparent, the launched app will automatically launched one of the other apps when needed (if the next/asked page isn't available in the current app).

Hi

Thanks for the information
OK, i used your advice, and converted the pdf files using that link. It gave me 10 files, 1 file was the hpappdir file, and the rest were zip files. None of the zip files were over 2mb in size. during the process i could see the pdfs on the right hand side, and the main picture of the pdfs cycling through them all. Now, i next downloaded the files individually at the bottom of the screen (is this correct, or should i have clicked the green download button at the top right?)

SO, now i have the files. Next step is to get them to the calculator. I read some website that said the hpappdir needed to be dragged to the 'applications folder', but no mention of where to drag the zip files too.
Also dragging the hpappdir file to applications folder on the HP connectivity Kit did nothing, in fact, the HP connectivity kit is now occasionally not responding , and have had a warning to delete it, and redownload it.
Now, while i may take the HP advice warning and re download the HP connectivity Kit, i am still at a loss as to where to put the files i created using the link you kindly provided.
Could you assist me in explaining the steps to get them to the calculator please.
Also, hopefully once they are across to the calculator, how do i view them?

I had read elsewhere before you replied to my post, about converting the pdf's to PNG or JPEG format, and send as image, to be viewed that way. Again, this is something i don't know how to do (I've already converted some of the pdf's to PNG, rather than jpeg as i wanted to keep the quality as some of the pdf's have hand written sections that haven't scanned well and are slightly faded)

While i don't want to take anyone's time, it would be greatly appreciated to be shown how to do this correctly, not just for my benefit, but it will mean i can also help others if similar posts appear on here, by explaining my experience)

If it helps, i could provide the link to the converted files and maybe someone can check that it has been done correctly?

Thanks in advance, and thanks for your previous reply

Will wait to hear back, and if you want the link to the files i created on the website
