Frequently Asked Questions
How does text to binary work?
Each character is converted to its ASCII or Unicode code point, then that number is expressed in binary (base 2). The letter A = ASCII 65 = binary 01000001. Space-separated 8-bit groups are the most common format.
Can I convert binary back to text?
Yes — use the decoder section at the bottom. Paste your binary string (space-separated 8-bit groups or continuous) and the decoded text appears instantly.
What encoding does this use?
UTF-8, which is the standard for the web. ASCII characters (A-Z, 0-9, punctuation) produce standard 8-bit binary groups. Extended Unicode characters produce multi-byte sequences.
