Last night I start organize my ebook folder, so I find some ebooks in Microsoft .chm (Compiled HTML) format. Normally ubuntu dose not open the .chm file, so I start investigation for founding a solution for how to open the .chm file in ubuntu.

I found many tools for viewing .chm file in ubuntu and all of that available within the Ubuntu repositories.

.chm viewer for Gnome users:

sudo aptitude install gnochm

.chm viewer for KDE users:

sudo aptitude install kchmviewer

Maybe you would like to convert the .chm file to PDF format, believe me this one is for you:

sudo aptitude install chm2pdf

If you don't like this tools you can find some others solutions listed on the link at the top of this article.
