RICHARD WALLEN was talking about IPFC ALTERNATIVES to ALL when I
jumped in and said:

Most compilers include the IBM toolkit just for this reason.  The
only other way that I discovered is through an IBM product called
Hyperwise.  It is a word processor for IPF files. It will export
directly to INF/HLP file without the use of the IPFC compiler.  

Good luck!
