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 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.

What is a PPTX file?

The PPTX format is the default XML-based presentation file type for Microsoft PowerPoint 2007 and later, standardized as ECMA-376 and ISO/IEC 29500 (Office Open XML). It replaces the binary PPT format by using a ZIP-compressed directory structure containing separate XML files for slide data, themes, and metadata, alongside folders for embedded media. This modular architecture reduces file size via deflate compression and improves data recovery, as undamaged components remain accessible even if specific XML parts are corrupted.

How to open a PPTX file

PPTX is natively supported by all Microsoft PowerPoint versions from 2007 onwards on Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android. It has broad cross-platform support, with full editing capabilities available in Apple Keynote, Google Slides, and LibreOffice Impress. Because it is a ZIP archive, users can also rename the extension to .zip to manually extract embedded media assets without specialized software.
