How to use the Text to Binary Converter

  1. Choose text → binary or binary → text.
  2. Type or paste your input.
  3. Copy the result.

What does this tool do?

Computers store text as numbers, and each byte is 8 bits. The letter “A” is 65, which is 01000001 in binary.

The converter uses UTF-8, the encoding of the web, so characters outside basic English take two to four bytes.

Why use it?

  • Both directions.
  • Full UTF-8 support.
  • Choice of separators.
