How to use

  3. Copy the result, or download it as a text file.

Frequently asked questions

Is my image uploaded?
No. The file is read locally with the browser's FileReader API and converted in memory.
What is the difference between a data URL and raw Base64?
A data URL includes the MIME type and encoding marker (for example, data:image/png;base64,...). Raw Base64 is only the encoded bytes.
Why do I get a warning about large images?
Base64 encoding increases size by roughly 33%. Very large images produce very long strings that may be impractical to embed inline.
Which formats are supported?
PNG, JPEG, GIF, and WEBP. Other formats are rejected to keep behaviour predictable across browsers.
