Sooner or later, each of us encounters the need to quickly and freely convert an office document from one format to another. And then the question arises: which application should we use?

In the case of Linux, you can install the free application [**Morphosis**](https://flathub.org/apps/garden.jamie.Morphosis), which allows you to simply upload a document, choose the conversion format, and get the result.

The utility works on the Pandoc engine, which can generally be invoked independently through the command line. You can input any file [from the list supported by the original engine](https://pandoc.org/MANUAL.html#option--from). There are plenty, so I recommend familiarizing yourself with it on your own. Pandoc helps quickly change the markup format.

The output list is a bit more modest: PDF, Markdown, reStructuredText, LaTeX, HTML, Microsoft Word (.docx), OpenOffice/LibreOffice (.odt), Rich Text Format (.rtf), EPUB. In some cases, there may be additional parameters, such as font selection.

It is important to note a key difference between Morphosis and Pandoc. You cannot convert a PDF file to another format. Otherwise, there are no restrictions.
