Examples

Convert DOCX to PDF

from groupdocs.conversion import Converter
from groupdocs.conversion.options.convert import PdfConvertOptions

with Converter("./business-plan.docx") as converter:
    converter.convert("./business-plan.pdf", PdfConvertOptions())

Convert with Advanced Options

from groupdocs.conversion import Converter
from groupdocs.conversion.options.convert import PdfConvertOptions
from groupdocs.conversion.options.load import WordProcessingLoadOptions

load_options = WordProcessingLoadOptions()
load_options.password = "12345"

with Converter("./protected.docx", load_options) as converter:
    options = PdfConvertOptions()
    options.dpi = 300
    options.page_number = 1
    options.pages_count = 2
    converter.convert("./output.pdf", options)

Get Document Info

from groupdocs.conversion import Converter

with Converter("./document.pdf") as converter:
    info = converter.get_document_info()
    print(f"Pages: {info.pages_count}")

Convert from Stream / BytesIO

import io
from groupdocs.conversion import Converter
from groupdocs.conversion.options.convert import PdfConvertOptions

with open("document.docx", "rb") as stream:
    with Converter(stream) as converter:
        converter.convert("output.pdf", PdfConvertOptions())

buf = io.BytesIO(downloaded_bytes)
with Converter(buf) as converter:
    converter.convert("output.pdf", PdfConvertOptions())

Command Line

Installing the wheel also puts groupdocs-conversion on PATH. Target format is inferred from the output extension; pass --format to override.

# Convert (extension picks the format)
groupdocs-conversion convert input.docx output.pdf
groupdocs-conversion convert input.docx page1.jpg --page 1 --count 1
groupdocs-conversion convert protected.docx out.pdf --password "secret"

# Inspect
groupdocs-conversion info input.pdf
groupdocs-conversion list-formats input.docx       # primary + secondary targets
groupdocs-conversion list-all-formats              # full source -> target matrix

# Apply a license up-front
groupdocs-conversion --license license.lic convert in.docx out.pdf

# Equivalent module form
python -m groupdocs.conversion convert in.docx out.pdf

Exit codes: 0 success, 2 user error (unknown format, missing input), 1 runtime error.

AI Agent & LLM Friendly

This package is designed for seamless integration with AI agents, LLMs, and automated code generation tools.

AGENTS.md in the package — AI coding assistants (Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot) auto-discover the API surface, usage patterns, and troubleshooting tips from the installed package

MCP server — connect your AI tool to GroupDocs documentation for on-demand API lookups:

{ "mcpServers": { "groupdocs-docs": { "url": "https://docs.groupdocs.com/mcp" } } }

Machine-readable docs — full documentation available as plain text for RAG and LLM context:
- Single file: https://docs.groupdocs.com/conversion/python-net/llms-full.txt
- Per page: append .md to any docs URL

Evaluation Mode

The API works without a license in evaluation mode with the following limitations:

A watermark is added to output documents.
Only the first 3 pages are processed.

To remove these limitations, apply a license or request a temporary license:

from groupdocs.conversion import License
License().set_license("path/to/license.lic")

Or set the environment variable (auto-applied at import):

export GROUPDOCS_LIC_PATH="path/to/license.lic"

Troubleshooting

Issue	Platform	Fix
`System.Drawing.Common is not supported`	Linux/macOS	`apt-get install libgdiplus` (Linux) or `brew install mono-libgdiplus` (macOS)
Garbled text or missing fonts in PDF	Linux	`apt-get install ttf-mscorefonts-installer fontconfig && fc-cache -f`
`The type initializer for 'Gdip' threw an exception`	macOS	`brew install mono-libgdiplus`
`DOTNET_SYSTEM_GLOBALIZATION_INVARIANT` errors	Linux	Do NOT set this variable. ICU must be available.

System Requirements

Python 3.5 - 3.14
Windows x64/x86, Linux x64, macOS x64/ARM64
