Text to Binary Converter

Encode any text to UTF-8 binary bytes.

Each character becomes one or more 8-bit values, because UTF-8 uses more bytes for accents, emoji and other non-ASCII characters.

How to use the Text to Binary tool

  1. Enter your text to binary in the fields above.
  2. Adjust any slider or type an exact number — the answer updates as you go.
  3. Copy the result and close the tab. Nothing you entered was sent anywhere.

About the Text to Binary tool

Type or paste text and get its UTF-8 byte encoding as 8-bit values, space-separated and live as you type.

Non-ASCII characters take more than one byte under UTF-8 — that is why café becomes three bytes for one accented character.
