Supported Formats

Every row below is computed from the live tool registry — the same data that drives each tool page — so it cannot drift out of date. Where a format needs more than a browser can honestly do, the row says so.

Text formats

Markdown61Rendered with marked, then laid out as text — headings stay as blocks, inline styling is dropped.
HTML51Tags and CSS are stripped to clean text and re-flowed onto the page; visual layout is not reproduced.
CSV44Quoted fields parsed and printed as a monospace-aligned table.
JSON33Re-indented with two spaces and printed in a monospace font; invalid JSON is rejected with a clear error.
RTF31Text extracted; rich styling is not reproduced.

Office formats

FormatTools that read itTools that write itNotes
Word DOCX42We write DOCX natively. Reading a DOCX back into PDF faithfully needs LibreOffice — that tool is labelled Coming soon.
Excel XLSX4—CSV is the reliable path; XLSX fidelity needs a server engine.
PowerPoint PPTX42Needs a server engine; labelled Coming soon rather than faked.

Picking the right tool for a format

The most reliable starting points: JPG to PDF, JPEG to PDF, PNG to PDF, WEBP to PDF. Each tool page lists exactly the extensions it accepts and produces, and validates the file type by content — not just by name — before processing starts.

Limits that apply to every format

  • 100 MB maximum per file, 50 files per batch — browser memory, not a paywall.
  • Encrypted PDFs must be unlocked first (Unlock PDF) before other tools can read them.
  • Password-protected Office files are not supported.
