Lesson 2 Zamzar


This is a very useful site for work and home purposes. We often get customers with diffrent files which may not be compatible with the current word programme. The classic file 2-3 years ago were files ending in .txt and we couldn't open them on the Learn.net and had to ask customers to return to the pc they had used and convert it to a word doc. Even now we still have government departments giving customers inforamtion on floppy discs which need to be converted.

I have just converted a word doc to a PDF. This tool will be very useful, particularly just having interviewed new staff and asking IT/HR to convert their CVs and cover letters as unable to open them so will now be able to do it via Zamzar.

Also a great site for our Learn.net customers

Congratulations on having completed the 2nd activity! When you catch Zamzar at the right time the return download link is instantaneous. But when you catch it at the wrong time wowsers - once had to wait 2 hrs eek. Very glad to read that this can come in handy for both staff and learn.net users :)

Zamzar is my favorite site to convert files, even music files.
