Does this tool upload my file?
Your file is read and processed by your browser. Some formats require downloading the conversion engine before processing begins.
Can I try it without my own file?
Yes. Pick one of the samples under the file picker to see how the tool works.
Will this change my original files?

What can I do if processing fails?
