How to use
Drop a file or click “Choose file” (.docx, .xlsx or .pptx). Old formats (.doc, .xls, .ppt), macro-enabled formats (.docm and so on) and files over 20 MB are not sent; the reason is shown instead.
Check the file, then press “Convert to PDF”. The file is sent only when you press this button.
When the conversion ends, the first page and the page count are shown.
Press “Download PDF” to save it. The name keeps the original name with the extension changed to .pdf.
What it does
Shows the reason before sending
The extension, size and first bytes are checked first, and clearly unsupported files are not sent. Macro-enabled formats (.docm and so on), old formats and files over 20 MB never reach the server. A mismatch between the extension and the contents, or macros inside the file, is checked on the server, which then shows the reason.
Deleted right after conversion
The file is deleted as soon as the conversion ends. It is not stored, and its name and contents are not written to logs.
Excel follows the print settings
Excel sheets are converted using the print area and page breaks set in the workbook. The better the print layout is set up, the less the PDF shifts.
Check the result before saving
After conversion, the first page and the page count are shown so you can check the result before you download the PDF.
Use cases
