How to use the Text to Binary Converter

Encode text as numeric character data or decode numeric input back to text.

  1. 1 Select Text to Code or Code to Text.
  2. 2 Choose Binary, Hexadecimal, Octal or Decimal and enter the corresponding input.
  3. 3 Check the result; use Swap when you want to reverse the conversion.

Example and practical tips

Try the letter A: its ASCII-compatible value is 65 in decimal, 41 in hexadecimal and 01000001 in binary.

Frequently asked questions

Is this encryption?

No. Numeric encoding is reversible and does not protect the contents.

Why might decoding fail or show unexpected characters?

The numeric base, separators and character encoding must match the source. Use a small known sample before decoding a large string.
