IF you ever run into a situation that you have to convert a file, but don’t have the proper programme to do it, don’t sweat!
Here is a free online programme that will make your life smooth again – so bring back your smile!
Zamzar allows you to convert files for free and without registration.
Convert images, word documents, music, video and CAD formats online for free
All you have to do is upload the file, specify which file format you want it to be converted into and provide your email address. They will email you a link to the converted file, like, almost instantly! All you have to do is grab it. Click on a category to find details of their conversion support.
What’s the catch? Well, the converted file will be available for download only for one day. I am sure, if you need file conversion badly, one day will prove to be a good offer. If you miss the deadline, you can upload it again, anyway.
They even have a bookmarklet. So if you need to convert the file format of something you found online, just launch the bookmarklet and it will get to work.
By the way, if you sign up you will get the ability to convert bigger files, a personal inbox for online file storage and faster file conversions.
You know what, I wish I knew about this a month ago. A client refused to pay me for a translation job on the pretext that I sent them a .docx file and they could not open it with their word processor and so they got it translated again by another dude and so they paid him instead. I wonder why they haven’t learned to use Google yet.
