Convert a file to PDF
Turns a Word document, a spreadsheet, a presentation, an image or a plain-text file into a PDF, and stores the result as a new file next to the original.
{ref} is the file id or the file name. A file that is already a PDF answers 400 — there is nothing to convert.
The new file carries parentFileId pointing back at the original, and is never indexed for search: the original is the thing that gets indexed.
