A Web File Conversion Application That Supports Multiple Conversion Types

If you have ever tried to publish, upload or integrate various forms of media into a single entity you may have run into error messages informing you there is a compatibility issue with your files, for example they are in a “format” the application does not recognize. This is a common error with video files for example. And you may be in a limited time schedule which may not allow you to do the personal research necessary to debug these kinds of issues yourself in a timely manner.

Sometimes it is a simple matter of converting files to a simpler version that does not use as many bytes of storage.

As long as you own or have rights to the files you may want to consider a service such as zamzar.com which allows to to convert files using the cloud without having to download a software converting tool.

Zamzar will usually convert smaller sized files for free and in the event the file is very large may ask you to pay a few dollars to convert it.

Zamzar also has a URL converter in addition to the file conversion feature for image formats, compressed, document formats, music formats, video formats, video presets and even e-book formats.
