If you are using Google Chrome as your web browser, then Sci2ools is a neat extension which you should be definitely trying out.

One important feature missing in this extension is the ability to convert local files, but this restriction is due to the permission issues with Chrome extensions. If you want to convert local files, you can use their online tool available here.
Overall Sci2ools is a very useful extension for conversions.
If you have troubles editing a PDF document, you can use Smart PDF Converter. It’s the easiest software I’ve ever used – it lets you convert files in a couple of clicks only. http://www.pdftodocconverterpro.com
It’s a very handy extension for sure. But i found another very interesting site which really offering too much beside converting your local file formats.
