That's right and this is normal when you use Personal Edition.

Indeed.

This is one of the few, yet important, differences between (free-to-use 
in some cases and evaluation only in any other case) Personal Edition 
and (commercial) Professional Edition.

See "Professional Edition features running in “evaluation mode” when 
using Personal Edition", 
https://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/download.shtml#about_eval_mode

See "Which editor to choose?", 
https://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/which_editor.html#convert_doc_eval_mode

Moreover, the dialog box used to the specify the WebHelp output file 
starts with a "prominent" *yellow* *note* explaining exactly that:

---
Personal Edition generates WebHelp files containing random duplicate 
letters.
(This does not happen with Professional Edition.)
---

May be you did not notice this information when you used the dialog box.
