Stop uploading your files to sketchy file conversion websites and servers. Use the secure, locally running file conversion app that strives to handle almost any file type. If you find a format that isn't supported, get it added! I'm building in public.

I swear I’ve wasted half my adult life downloading sketchy converters, closing 12 pop-ups about Vegas casinos, and trying to guess which ‘Download Now’ button wasn’t secretly malware. Enter HowToConvert, the tool that finally restored my faith in humanity (or at least in file conversion). It’s basically the Swiss Army knife of formats: video to audio, audio to audio, image to image, docs to PDFs, even those random legacy files you’d forgotten existed. I’ve thrown everything from ancient .flv videos to giant RAW images at it, and it just works; fast, clean, and with zero hidden nonsense ... and .tex/LaTex conversions, too? Wow. If I’d found this sooner, I’d probably have an extra hobby by now. Until then, at least file conversion is no longer the most dreaded part of my digital life.”

We've found the installation a bit rough due to the many checks needed however once installed it works like a charm. Just perfect for what we need. If you can make it a bit more powerful for e-commerce users would be great!!

It work. On Linux. And nicely. That's a big plus. I know: CLI does the same for many of these format the apps supports. But, sometimes, Linux users do want things that just work, a few clicks, and be done with it.

Great app! Finally something local to convert from anything into anything else, instead of every time going to google "convert x into y online".
