Frequently asked questions

Does Base64 encrypt data?

No. Base64 is an encoding format, not encryption or access control.

Is Unicode text supported?

Yes. Text is encoded as UTF-8 before conversion.

What happens with malformed Base64?

The tool reports invalid encoding instead of returning a partial result.

Does the conversion use a server?

No. Encoding and decoding happen locally in your browser.

Can I encode files here?

This tool converts text only. Use Image to Base64 for image data URLs.
