The ability to easily and reliably convert documents from one format to another is one of the main feature areas of Aspose.Words. Such a conversion is nothing more than a combination of loading and saving operations.

## What Is Document Conversion {#what-is-document-conversion}

Almost any task that you want to perform with Aspose.Words involves loading or saving a document in some format. As mentioned in previous sections, the [LoadFormat](https://reference.aspose.com/words/cpp/aspose.words/loadformat/) enumeration specifies all *load* or *import* formats supported by Aspose.Words, and the [SaveFormat](https://reference.aspose.com/words/cpp/aspose.words/saveformat/) enumeration specifies all *save* or *export* formats supported by Aspose.Words. Thus, Aspose.Words can convert a document from any supported load format into any supported save format. As a rule, such a conversion requires several stages of calculation. However from the user perspective conversion from a document format to another one is itself very simple, and can be accomplished with just two steps:

1. Load your document into a [Document](https://reference.aspose.com/words/cpp/class/aspose.words.document) object using one of its constructors.
1. Invoke one of the [Save](https://reference.aspose.com/words/cpp/class/aspose.words.saving.save_output_parameters) methods on the **Document** object and specify the desired output format.

## Popular Conversions {#popular-conversions}

The current section describes popular conversions, as well as ideas for working with some combinations of formats when loading and saving. Using the examples of this section, you can understand that the conversion process itself is quite universal, and there is no point in describing all the possible options, since there are several hundred of them due to the large number of [formats supported by Aspose.Words for C++](/words/cpp/supported-document-formats/).

Please note that below are the most popular conversion combinations, and not every combination is linked to the definite page. This is the case because our articles do not have examples for every pair of conversions – almost all conversions are pretty similar. Make sure of this by studying the articles in the current section.
