Why FormatYard

Built so your files stay yours

Most online converters upload your file to their server. FormatYard does the work on your own computer, and that changes everything.

01Private by design

Your file is read and the result is made inside your browser tab. It is never sent to a server, so private drawings and photos stay private.

02Free, with no catch

No account, no trial, no watermark and no daily limit. Every tool on this page is free to use, as often as you need.

03Many photos at once

Drop a whole folder of pictures and get every result in one ZIP. CAD tools take one drawing at a time.

04No waiting for uploads

Nothing goes up and comes back down, so there is no queue: most files are done in seconds.

05Real engines

The same engines the big programs use: ImageMagick, MozJPEG, LibreDWG and ACadSharp, running in your browser.

06Your work is kept

Close the tab by mistake? Your files and results are still there after a reload, for 24 hours, on this device only.
