Method and system for intelligent optimization of document conversion engine selection

The present exemplary embodiment discloses a method and system for utilizing machine learning and artificial intelligence to selecting an optimal conversion driver to convert a document into a printable form. The methods include receiving at least one user print request and at least one user submitted file associated with the user request, optimizing the conversion of a file by executing, by at least one computer processor, determining that format conversion is necessary for the file, identifying least one of a plurality of file conversion drivers as optimal for converting the file, causing the optimal file conversion driver to convert the file into a printer readable format, and printing the converted file. The conversion drivers may be selected from remote or local conversion engines. The machine learning employs artificial intelligence to select the optimal conversion path by analyzing the properties of the document submitted for conversion.
