How To Convert Documents And Files Online Via Email

Sometimes we all need to convert some files in other formats for compatibility reasons. There are millions of programs that allow you to convert any type of document from a format to any other.

And there are also many web-based services that allow you to change any file’s format without installing any software, and I also made a little collection of the best online conversion tools.

But another way of converting files is on its way: email. Nowadays email accounts do not longer need to be accessed via dedicated softwares like Microsoft Outlook or Mozilla Thunderbird, so you can just use a browser and log-in into your personal email through a web form.

Koolwire is a service that you can use to convert files just by sending an email: you just have to attach a file, type in the right address for that specific conversion and, after a while you have sent the email, a new one will be sent to you with the converted file attached.
