Here are some common use cases to get started.

Example 1: Convert a Document to Another Format

The following example demonstrates how to convert a DOCX file to PDF:

from groupdocs.conversion import Converter
from groupdocs.conversion.options.convert import PdfConvertOptions

def convert_document_to_another_format():
    # Instantiate Converter with the input document 
    with Converter("./business-plan.docx") as converter:
        # Instantiate convert options to define the output format
        pdf_convert_options = PdfConvertOptions()
        
        # Convert the input document to PDF
        converter.convert("./business-plan.pdf", pdf_convert_options)    

if __name__ == "__main__":
    convert_document_to_another_format()

Example 2: Convert All Pages of a Document

The following example demonstrates how to convert each slide in a PPTX presentation to a PNG image and save the output images to a specified folder.

from groupdocs.conversion import Converter
from groupdocs.conversion.filetypes import ImageFileType
from groupdocs.conversion.options.convert import ImageConvertOptions

def convert_all_document_pages():
    # Instantiate Converter with the input document 
    with Converter("./basic-presentation.pptx") as converter:
        # Instantiate convert options 
        png_convert_options = ImageConvertOptions()
        # Define the output format as PNG
        png_convert_options.format = ImageFileType.PNG
        
        # Convert all pages and save to the output folder
        converter.convert_by_page("./converted-pages", png_convert_options)    

if __name__ == "__main__":
    convert_all_document_pages()

Example 3: Convert Files Within Document Container

The following example demonstrates how to convert each compressed file in ZIP archive to PDF:

from groupdocs.conversion import Converter
from groupdocs.conversion.options.convert import PdfConvertOptions

def convert_files_within_document_container():
    # Instantiate Converter with the input document 
    with Converter("./compressed.zip") as converter:
        # Instantiate convert options 
        pdf_convert_options = PdfConvertOptions()

        # Extract, convert and save output files in PDF format
        converter.convert_multiple("./converted-files", pdf_convert_options)    

if __name__ == "__main__":
    convert_files_within_document_container()
