In this case the advantage is that you don't need to download anything, and I'll admit that I used websites like this years ago
For example, PNG to ICO, or PDF to Word, when people don't have a tool installed and they look up how to do it, these websites pop up and it feels very convenient.
Maybe there is a utility that can be self hosted for this. Something like StirlingPDF but for all kinds of files

+1 for StirlingPDF, amazing tool. I use Handbrake for video conversion and Gimp for images. IT-tools for text based conversions, but it does many other things too and can be self hosted.
