Five real reasons to convert source format to target format

  1. Compatibility — the recipient's software opens target format but not source format.
  2. Size — target format compresses better for most modern web use cases.
  3. Quality controls — target format gives you finer-grained settings that source format doesn't expose.
  4. Platform requirements — uploaders that demand a specific format leave you no choice.
  5. Workflow consistency — standardising on one format across a batch is easier to maintain.
