You might also consider www.herdsoft.com. They
have a shareware decompiler (help-to-rtf) which
creates RTF files from help files.
The winhlp mailing list also reports another
decompiler (available at the Wextech site) which
decompiles into RTF and associated (HPJ, etc.)
files, useful for recompilation.
