HP Instant Delivery is HP software for delivering content to supported HP printers. An .hpid file contains instructions used by the software when processing or delivering that content.
The file is part of the HP Instant Delivery software workflow and is not normally opened independently. Its MIME type is application/vnd.hp-hpid.
Open an .hpid file with HP Instant Delivery, if that software is installed and the file belongs to its workflow. The software normally processes the file as part of its delivery workflow rather than opening it as a document.
Avoid modifying the file, as this may prevent HP Instant Delivery from processing its instructions.
An .hpid file contains software instructions rather than user-editable document content, so it is not normally converted to a common document format.
If you need the delivered content in another format, use the source content or any export options provided by HP Instant Delivery.
