The Complete Guide to Batch File Converting in File Viewer Plus
File Viewer Plus is a powerful all-in-one file utility that opens over 400 file formats. One of its most valuable time-saving features is the built-in batch file converter. Instead of opening and saving files individually, you can transform hundreds of documents, images, audio files, or spreadsheets simultaneously.
This guide provides a step-by-step walkthrough to master the batch conversion feature in File Viewer Plus. Why Use Batch Conversion?
Saves Time: Convert entire folders of files in a single operation.
Standardizes Formats: Easily change proprietary formats into universal files like PDF, JPEG, or MP3.
Preserves Data: Maintain original file contents while upgrading or downgrading file types. Step 1: Open the Batch Converter To begin, launch File Viewer Plus on your PC. Navigate to the top ribbon menu. Click on the Tools tab. Select Batch Convert from the dropdown menu.
A new window dedicated to the batch conversion process will open. Step 2: Add Your Files
The converter allows you to select individual files or entire directory trees.
Click Add Files to choose specific files from various locations.
Click Add Folder to import every supported file inside a specific directory.
Alternative: Drag and drop files directly from Windows Explorer into the converter window.
Tip: You can mix and match different file types (e.g., mixing Word documents and Excel sheets). The software will categorize them automatically. Step 3: Choose Your Output Formats
File Viewer Plus organizes conversion options based on the file category.
Select the file category from the left pane (e.g., Documents, Images, Audio). Choose your desired Output Format from the drop-down menu.
Documents: Convert DOCX, RTF, or TXT to PDF or image formats. Images: Convert HEIC, RAW, or PSD to JPEG, PNG, or TIFF. Audio/Video: Convert various media types to MP3 or MP4.
Adjust format-specific settings (such as image JPEG quality or PDF compression) if prompted. Step 4: Define the Destination Folder
Before running the conversion, specify where your new files should live.
Locate the Output Options section at the bottom of the window. Click Browse to select a destination folder.
Choose how to handle duplicate filenames (e.g., overwrite, skip, or automatically rename). Step 5: Execute the Conversion
With your files loaded and destination set, you are ready to convert.
Click the Start Conversion button in the bottom right corner.
Monitor the progress bar as the software processes each file.
Once finished, click Open Output Folder to immediately view your newly formatted files.
