Changing the file name extension is like slapping a sticker on your chest “Richard”. Is your name now legally Richard? Fuck no. The filename is just a sticker. I’m not even sure how you logically tried to reason that out.
File converters work by being able to read the original format in the first place. For example image file converters are programmed to recognize common image formats like JPG and GIF. If you give them a file saved in a format like TIFF that they aren’t programmed for they won’t be able to open them. There’s nothing complicated about this shit. Either they’ve been programmed to recognize a format or not. That’s it.
It’s the same way for the conversion. They’ve been programmed to save the data in several formats. If they haven’t been programmed to output PDF then they can’t convert to PDF.
