Convert files on upload

I have Google set to convert files to Google Docs Format on upload, but when I sync’s my folders the docs show up as Word Documents. Why?

Hi there, have you seen this how-to? How to convert Google Doc format to Office

Might help you figure out how to not convert your current docs :slight_smile:

I want to convert the local files (already in office format) to the GDoc format when they upload. I have Google Drive configured to automatically convert on upload to GDoc format. This is working if I upload files manually, but when I use a Sync program it does not convert.
