FreshConvert
Overview
FreshConvert is a free online file converter offering roughly 90 tools for images, PDFs, documents, video and audio. Users can merge, split, compress, convert, rotate, unlock and edit PDFs, convert PDF to Word, change image formats, and convert video/audio files without installing software. Image and PDF tools process files locally in the browser; media and document conversions run on FreshConvert's own servers, with limits such as a 1GB combined upload, two concurrent conversions, and a two-minute processing cap for media jobs. No account is required for the free tier, though signing up raises some limits.
