Import public keys to PuTTY

Well, the PuTTY team has requested I seek support here first. So, sorry
if this is slightly off-topic. Fortunately, PuTTY is open-source... 
I've got a bunch of SSH public keys for various servers that I would
like to import into PuTTY, so I don't have to reverify all these
servers' fingerprints.
PuTTY stores its keys in the registry
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SimonTatham\PuTTY\SshHo stKeys].
Unfortunately, PuTTY seems to encode the public key in hexadecimal
before storing it in the registry. It also appears to not be a straight
character-by-character conversion, otherwise I might not be seeking support.
All I need to know is, what kind of encoding process is performed on the
public key before it gets stored in the registry? When I know this, I
can hopefully manually do the conversion and put the results into the
registry.
Thanks.
