All the Google searching resulted in “it’s impossible” or convert it on a PC and email it back to yourself.
After a while I stumbled across Zamzar, which lets you upload a file, it then does all the converting for you and emails you back the results. It’s like having a friend with an old PC, but you don’t have to talk to them. They do loads of file types, documents, images, video, CAD and audio. The service is free, but they also offer a paid version, which is a bit faster. I’ve just uploaded a file, so will see how long it takes…
