The main feature of GroupDocs.Conversion Cloud API is an ability to convert any document from a wide list of supported source document formats into any supported target format. All these conversions are possible without any additional software installed (like MS Office, Apache Open Office, Adobe Acrobat Reader, and others).

GroupDocs.Conversion Cloud provides a flexible set of settings to customize the conversion process to fulfill your needs:

• Convert the whole document to the desired target format;
• Convert specific document page(s) or page range;
• Auto-detect source document format - document format will be detected on the fly (no document extension is required);
• Load source document with extended options - to specify a password for password-protected documents, for loading specific part of the document (for example specific sheet from Spreadsheet document), to show/hide document comments, etc.;
• Obtain all supported conversion formats list;
• Missing fonts replacement - the missing font(s) can be replaced with any provided font(s) instead;

• PDF – information about document printing restrictions;
