HRF Troubleshooting


Issues Opening HRF Files

Intergraph SmartPlant Markup is Not Installed

Double-clicking your HRF file prompts the message "%%os%% Can't Open HRF File". If this is the case, it's usually due to the fact that you do not have Intergraph SmartPlant Markup for %%os%% installed on your computer. Your operating system cannot associate your HRF with Intergraph SmartPlant Markup, so double-clicking the file won't work.


Tip: When another HRF application is installed, you can choose to open it by selecting "Show Apps" and using that program.


Incorrect Intergraph SmartPlant Markup Version

Your Hitachi Raster Format File file is incompatible with Intergraph SmartPlant Markup because you might have the wrong version installed. Installing the latest version of Intergraph SmartPlant Markup from Hexagon PPM is recommended. This problem is most common when you have an older version of the software application, and your file was created by a newer version that it cannot recognize.


Tip: Investigate your HRF file by right-clicking and selecting "Properties" to find clues on what version you need.


Summary: In either case, the majority of problems opening HRF files are related to not having the correct software application installed on your computer.


Other HRF File Opening Causes

Although you might already have Intergraph SmartPlant Markup or another HRF-associated software installed on your computer, you can still encounter problems opening Hitachi Raster Format File files.

These other problems include (listed in order from most to least common):

  • Partial installation of Intergraph SmartPlant Markup that did not fully complete
  • Something has caused file corruption of your HRF
