How it works

Three steps to your converted file

Everything happens in your browser tab - upload, pick a format, download. The heavy lifting runs on our servers.

01

Upload your file

Drag and drop, click to browse, or paste a URL. Batches take up to 20 files at once - 230+ input formats across video, audio, image, document, and archive types.

02

Choose an output format

Pick from over a hundred output formats. Filter by category or search by name - every option is open to everyone, no account needed.

03

Convert & download

Hit Convert and grab your download link moments later. Originals are erased when the job completes; results are cleared within about an hour.

What is an ODG file?

The ODG format is the vector graphics file standard defined by the OpenDocument Format (ODF) ISO/IEC 26300 specification. Based on XML, it defines vector drawings using points, lines, and curves rather than pixel grids, allowing for infinite scalability without quality loss. The file is actually a ZIP-compressed package containing XML content files (content.xml), styles, metadata, and embedded binary objects. It acts as the open-standard alternative to proprietary formats like Microsoft Visio or Adobe Illustrator files.

How to open an ODG file

ODG files are natively supported by the LibreOffice and Apache OpenOffice suites, specifically the 'Draw' application. While Microsoft Office does not support ODG natively in older versions, recent iterations of Word and PowerPoint can import the format with varying degrees of fidelity. For web-based viewing, Google Drive allows previewing ODG files, while vector editors like Inkscape can open and edit them directly.

What is a PDF file?

The Portable Document Format (PDF) is a comprehensive file format, standardized as ISO 32000, designed to present documents consistently independent of application software, hardware, and operating systems. It encapsulates a complete description of a fixed-layout 2D document, including text, fonts, vector graphics, and raster images, based on the PostScript language. Advanced implementations support interactive form fields, JavaScript scripting, 3D objects (U3D/PRC), and various encryption standards.

How to open a PDF file

PDF viewing is natively supported by all major modern web browsers (Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Safari) and most operating systems via built-in previewers. For advanced manipulation, form filling, or pre-press validation, dedicated software such as Adobe Acrobat DC, Foxit Reader, or open-source tools like Ghostscript and Poppler is required.
