Nothing is lost in the sense of pixels or sound, but layout can change. Text, headings, lists and simple tables carry over; complex layouts, fonts and page breaks may not look exactly the same in TEX. Check the result before you delete the RST file.
Is my RST file uploaded anywhere?
No. Filoshi converts on your PC with its built-in engines (FFmpeg, ImageMagick, Pandoc, PDFium, pdfcpu and 7-Zip). Your RST file never leaves your computer.
Has RST to TEX been tested?
Yes. RST to TEX is one of the 1,841 conversions that passed Filoshi's automated test matrix on Windows 11.
Can I convert many RST files at once?
Yes, in the desktop app. Drop as many RST files as you like on the window, pick TEX once for all of them, and each file shows its own progress. The new files appear next to the originals, which are never changed.
