Hi Lucy Zarbano‌,

Get the list of registered mimetypes from url http://hostort/alfresco/s/mimetypes in your alfresco.

And check your document can be Transformable To or Transformable From .
Transformable to - current possible transformation of document can be transform to mimetypes.

Transformable from - current possible transformation of document can be transform from mimetypes.
If your required mimetype is available in the above then you can transform by code or from UI rules.

Thanks,
Kalpesh,

You have to create a new custom transformer.

The information you need (including sample code) is available at Content Transformers (and Renditions) | Alfresco Documentation
