convert_file

Convert a file from one format to another.

Returns a temporary download URL (valid 1 hour; file deleted within 24 hours).

translate_file

The job runs immediately and returns a FREE preview of the first pages plus a secure Stripe checkout link — the full translated file unlocks after payment ($4.99, one-time, no account needed). Provide EITHER source_url OR base64_content, plus a filename with extension.
