file converter

Digital format changer

A file converter is software or a service that transforms files from one format to another: I used a file converter to turn the PDF into a Word document.

Online converters handle common transformations—images, documents, audio, video—without requiring installed software.

The term also applies to hardware adapters that translate between incompatible storage formats.
