Convert file format easily

To convert a file to another format, simply right click the file, select the “Export to” option, then select the desired format from the submenu. After that, a folder selection dialog box will popup. Then select the destination folder for the converted file and click the “OK” button. GDocsDrive will do the conversion and save the converted file to the right place.

Note: Not all files can be converted. Only files with Google Docs formats can be exported to other formats. The only file types which can be converted to other file formats are: ‘document’, ‘presentation’, ‘spreadsheet’, and ‘drawing’. For other file types, you cannot find an “Export to” option in the right-click menu because they cannot be converted using Google Docs.

File conversion may sometimes fail, depending on the content and format of the file to be converted. Google Docs cannot ensure that every file conversion will be successful.

There is a convenient way to convert your local files to another format, such as a PowerPoint file to PDF or an Excel spreadsheet to an Open Document spreadsheet. Just right click the file and select “Convert to …”, then GDocsDrive will do the conversion for you!
