One tool instead of a hundred converter websites

Archives

  • Open and extract almost anything: RAR / RAR5, 7z, ZIP, TAR (gz, bz2, xz, zst), ISO, DMG, CAB, PKG, DEB, CPIO, LZH, including multi-volume sets.
  • Password-protected ZIPs (AES and classic), and Russian file names from Windows-made archives come out right instead of garbled.
  • Create ZIP (optionally with an AES-256 password), 7z, TAR.*, DMG and ISO; compress a single file to gz, bz2, xz or zst.
  • List an archive's contents or test its integrity without extracting.
  • Safe by default: archives that try to write outside their folder are refused, and suspiciously huge "zip bombs" ask first.
  • RAR is read-only: creating RAR archives is restricted by the RAR license.

Folders

  • Drop a whole folder: convert everything inside by kind (Images → JPG, Video → MP4, Documents → PDF) into a mirrored "(converted)" folder.
  • Batch: compress, strip metadata, OCR all scans, all images into one PDF or a collage, flatten nested folders, folder report.

New formats

  • Camera RAW (DNG, CR2, CR3, NEF, ARW, RAF, ORF, RW2), JPEG XL and PSD as input.
  • ICO and ICNS output: favicons and app icons from any image.
  • FB2 e-books ↔ EPUB, PDF, DOCX and more.
  • JSON ↔ YAML ↔ XML ↔ plist ↔ CSV.
  • ASS/SSA subtitles.

Русский. Один инструмент вместо сотни сайтов-конвертеров: распаковка RAR, 7z, ZIP и других архивов (с паролями и правильными русскими именами из Windows-архивов), создание ZIP с паролем, 7z, DMG и ISO; целые папки на колесе (конвертировать всё внутри, сжать, распознать текст, собрать PDF); новые форматы: RAW с камер, иконки ICO/ICNS, книги FB2, данные JSON/YAML/XML, субтитры ASS.
